Except for the A-bombs on Japan, the war againts civilians was fought mainly with coventional HE and incendiary bombs. But, apart from Holland (after the bombing of Rotterdam), did any country actually surrender because of bombing? Britain and Germany both suffered their Blitz but all the evidence points to the fact that neither succumbed to it alone.
Yes and No. Germay tryed to do that with England in ww2,but england just kept on going through the war. It would depend on how small or big the country is though,small country i would say yes and a countyr with the same millarty might i say no.
Zanzibar surrendered after a half-hour bombardment by a British gunboat in 1886. Apart from that I can't think of any country that has surrendered to bombardment or bombing alone without invasion by ground troops.
A couple of examples where the RAF played the decisive role, and did most of the fighting that weakened, and ulimately, beat the enemy: 1920 conflict between British forces and Somaliland dervishes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Anglo-Iraqi War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
