• Agreement to partition Germany into occupation zones.
• Agree to form the United Nations- a permanent international organization for collective security.

Postdam, Germany- July-August 1945
Truman, Atlee and Stalin could barely agree to demilitarize Germany and punish Nazi war criminals as Soviet-American relations continued
to deteriorate.
Truman issued an order that the atomic bomb be dropped if Japan had not surrendered by August 3. Then he warned Japan to surrender
unconditionally or face “prompt and utter destruction.” The Japanese rejected the offer.

“1945: A Year in History,” Roy Hoopes
“It was perhaps, the most significant year of the century.”
“…this was a year during which civilization passed from one era into another.”
“The war changed America and the world forever… the world has never been the same since 1945.”
