Answer: It's D: Unicode on Edge

Step-by-step explanation:

In the late ’80s, developers from Xerox and Apple worked on the explicit goal of unifying the various encoding systems into one universal character set. The result is Unicode, a character encoding system that can represent text written in all of the world’s languages and scripts. Unicode assigns a unique code point, an integer value denoted in base 16, to each character in the world’s languages. Applications such as web browsers or word processors “read” the Unicode, and then render the correct character according to the application’s own programming for font, size, and style.
