Answer: B) Japan

Step-by-step explanation:

Michinomiya Hirohito (1901-1989) was emperor of Japan from 1926 until his death. He became emperor after the death of his father and would be the longest-reigning monarch in the history of Japan.

He did approve the invasion of Manchuria and the war on China. However, Hirohito´s involvement in Japan’s expansionist policies is still up to debate by historians.
