The correct option is A

Japan is a country of progress and its economic history is studied in great detail since the 19th century after the Meiji restoration. This country managed to become the first non-European or North American contemporary world power (in the case of the United States). This change occurred thanks to the relatively late integration of the industrializing measures that were born a century ago.

Economic development, which transformed Japan into an industrial country, is considered a phenomenon that is firmly established until after the Pacific War, but its beginnings go from decades before. Industrialization was born in 1886, a year of great political change, when the so-called Meiji restoration takes place in history and a new government emerges determined to make progressive and modern capitalist decisions oriented towards welfare and national improvement. Later there were recessionary and violent moments that forced Japan to adopt new systems, make relations with other groups of great power, join two World Wars and, finally, recover from the devastation seen in World War II and reach its peak in the period called Japanese Miracle. Japan is the third industrial power, despite having few natural resources. The peculiar mentality towards work, an aggressive policy that is among the first producers of automobiles, electronic equipment, ships and steel. The main industrial region is the Tokyo-Yokohama axis.
