The correct option is option (B).

Otto von Bismarck played the leading role in the unification of Germany.

As the Chancellor of Prussia, Bismarck used a combination of diplomacy, strategic wars (such as the Danish War, Austro-Prussian War, and Franco-Prussian War), and political maneuvering to unify the German states under Prussian leadership, culminating in the establishment of the German Empire in 1871 with King Wilhelm I of Prussia as the first Emperor. Bismarck's approach is often referred to as "Blood and Iron" diplomacy.
