The nation that sustained a communist revolution in the years immediately after World War II is China.
The modern country of Japan has a parliamentary democracy.
To answer Question 1, "Which nation sustained a communist revolution in the years immediately after World War II?", we can eliminate options based on historical knowledge. Afghanistan did not have a communist revolution after World War II, so we can eliminate that option. Similarly, Japan did not sustain a communist revolution either. That leaves us with two possible options: China and Russia.
To determine the correct answer, we need to evaluate historical events. In the years immediately after World War II, China experienced a communist revolution led by Mao Zedong and the Chinese Communist Party. This revolution resulted in the establishment of the People's Republic of China in 1949. On the other hand, Russia had already undergone a communist revolution earlier, in 1917, so it is not the correct answer in this context.
Therefore, the correct answer to Question 1 is: China.
Moving on to Question 2, "What type of government does the modern country of Japan have?", we can again eliminate options based on general knowledge. Japan is neither a communist autocracy nor a monarchy.
To determine the correct answer, we need to evaluate the political system of Japan. Currently, Japan has a parliamentary democracy. This means that the government is formed by a legislature (parliament) and the Prime Minister is elected from among the members of the parliament. The Emperor of Japan holds a ceremonial role and does not possess executive powers.
Therefore, the correct answer to Question 2 is: parliamentary democracy.
