A,C Correct answer
Explanation

Japan is called both Nippon and Nihon in Japanese - both names mean 'Land of the Rising Sun'. Nippon is used more in formal contexts and on banknotes and stamps, while Nihon is commonly used in everyday speech. Jippon and Jipangu are not the correct names - these appear to be variants or misspellings.
