Solution

The correct option is D Constitutional Monarchy
The USA defeated Japan, and regained most of its territories in the western Pacific Ocean, previously captured by Japan in the war. The Second World War resulted in the victory of the Allied powers. The US allowed the Japanese emperor to continue ruling Japan. Japan chose to become a Constitutional Monarchy like England. It meant that it would be ruled by an elected government, which is responsible to the Japanese Parliament known as Diet.
