0 A view of "Ground Zero" in Hiroshima in the autumn of 1945 showing the "total destruction" of the first atomic bomb. Note the still-standing, unscathed brick+mortar buildings + bridges, @ ground zero. Hiroshima was a largely a "city" of completely wooden structures. It was napalmed, not nuked.

There WERE firebombs in conjunction with other arms, like nukes. Very devastating because of beautiful traditional Japanese homes are basically made of paper.
