Executive Order 9066 was the order that placed Japanese Americans in internment camps.

C) placed Japanese Americans in internment camps

Step-by-step explanation:

President Franklin D. Roosevelt signs Executive Order 9066, starting a disruptive World War II strategy with dependable ramifications for Japanese Americans and the President Authorizes Japanese Relocation.

In a climate of World War II panic, President Roosevelt, energized by authorities at all degrees of the government, approved the internment of a huge number of American residents of Japanese parentage and occupant outsiders from Japan.

It approved the Army to clear any people they thought about a risk to national security. Therefore, more than 120,000 Japanese individuals had to migrate to one of ten diverse internment camps around the United States.
