Answer:

    Several regions of Asia and the Pacific Ocean were European colonies or possessions, such as Indochina, Vietnam's former name, then a French possession, Indonesia, then Dutch possession, and Singapore, then English possession. Japan wanted to follow the example of the European colonialist powers.

    When Hitler began his war in Europe, the Japanese found an opportunity to transform these European colonies in Asia and the Pacific into Japanese colonies. So while England, France, and the Netherlands were very busy with the problems caused by Nazi Germany, Japan took the opportunity to conquer the territories in which it was interested.

Correct answer:  D. To help former slaves make the change to freedom

Details:

The Freedmen's Bureau was established by Congress in 1865, in the aftermath of the Civil War.  The aim of the Bureau was to provide assistance to former black slaves (as well as poor whites) in the South during the Reconstruction period.  The Freedmen’s Bureau provided food and housing, established schools, and made medical and legal assistance available.  There was an intention of settling former slaves on land confiscated or abandoned during the war, but that didn't materialize. Radical Republicans took over dominance in Congress and they determined that confiscated lands in the South should be returned to their original owners.
