The words of Minister Wellington caused a tremendous stir, instantly boiling the blood of the journalists present.
It seemed that the bombing of Hiroshima was not the end, as Australasia appeared poised to bomb the Island Nation's most important urban city, the capital, Tokyo.
It's important to understand that Hiroshima is just a medium-to-large city in the Island Nation. Were it not for its fairly strategic location, it might have been classified as a medium-to-small city.

If the power of Australasia's new weapon was truly as exaggerated as touted, it would be a catastrophic blow for the 3 million Islanders living in Tokyo.
