Okay, so the nukes made Japan surrender, but did the surrender of Japan stop the war? I would argue that the war ended when Germany was defeated, not Japan. Or is it a shortcut that historians agree on to say that Japan's surrender was the reason for Germany's defeat?

Germany surrendered several months before Japan did. Japan was the last major power to surrender.
