The correct answer is C. Southwest Asia
There were outposts in the Indian ocean and they traded slaves in that area as well as northern Africa. Mexico and South America had not yet been discovered while Russia was too far away to participate in anything. They traded with locals in around Egypt as well as the SEA region.
There are a lot of reasons for this! 1942 features many intense moments for the world, including the Battle of the Coral Sea, the Battle of Midway, Stalingrad, and the Manhattan Project. I think the most important is the Manhattan Project, because this is what is usually publicized (at least in American history) as the "final straw" of the Allies.
