Answer – B. (The Lecompton constitution was a proslavery document, pushed through by fraud, which congress did not approve)

The Lecompton constitution was a pro-slavery constitution which was written in order to admit the state of Kansas to the union that was opposed to the Topeka Constitution which was anti-slavery; the Lecompton constitution was eventually rejected by congress and Kansas became a free state in 1861. Douglas later recalled telling Buchannan that the Lecompton constitution was a blatant fraud on the process of democracy and on the people of Kansas.

the fact that could also be added to column b is that during world war ii, specifically between the years 1941 and 1945, japan expanded its territory towards the indonesian territory in what was known later as part of the "pacific war". in that time, japan could conquer the philipines, singapore,   borneo, central java, malang, cebu, sumatra and various other islands of the area, therefore expanding its territory for a brief period of time.
