The correct answer is B) Refused Allied Requests for their Surrender.

Before August 1945, military leaders in Japan refused Allied Requests for their Surrender.

The Japanese Army had demonstrated its powerful presence and effective tactics in WWII. Japan had a military presence and control in different countries of Asia. In those moments, there where no way Japan was thinking anything other than victory.

But in the unexpected turn of events, the Allies won the war and demanded the surrender of Japan. They extended an option to surrender, a pact, but the Japanese did not agree and were reluctant to give up. The story ended when the U. S. launched two atomic bombs in the Japanese cities of Hiroshima (August the 6th) and Nagasaki (August the 9th). Japan officially surrender on August 15.
