The Soviet Union planed on invading Hokkaido during the brief Soviet Japanese War in August 1945 however a week or 2 before the planned invasion the Japanese of course surrendered.
Truman at the Yalta conference gave a ok to the Soviets taking the Sakhalin and the Kuril Islands however I think would have objected to the ideas of invasion of any of the 4 home islands by the Soviets.
What if however the Soviets were giving a go before Japan’s surrender and the invasion was on?
Would of it succeed or fail? And if it did succeed would we have a divided Japan like in Germany were we have a side controlled by the Soviets and one controlled by the other allies?
What do you think?
