What will this Database Availability Group (or groups) configuration look like to ensure a working solution in both active and failure scenarios?

You need to design a DAG layout for a company with 5000 staff located around the world.
The company has three datacenters, one located in San Francisco, one in Madrid, and one in Tokyo. Mailbox sizes mean that one server in each site is sufficient to store the data and a second server is needed for high availability. The network infrastructure of the company allows all users to access all parts of the network via an MPLS cloud network, but the fastest links are to the geographically closest datacenter. If the MPLS network links fail, cross-site connectivity will be broken.
What will this Database Availability Group (or groups) configuration look like to ensure a working solution in both active and failure scenarios?
A. Create a single DAG with two servers in each datacenter as members of this DAG with the file share witness in Madrid.
B. Create two DAGs, one with the PAM and file share witness in San Francisco and the other with the PAM and FSW in Tokyo. Add one server in Madrid to the San Francisco DAG, and the other server to the Tokyo DAG.
C. Create three DAGs, one for each datacenter and expand the DAG to the nearest other datacenter where an additional server will be placed for site resilience for that primary datacenter of the DAG.
D. Create four DAGs. One in each datacenter with two servers in it, and then a fourth DAG that holds the replica servers and is distributed geographically across all of the datacenters.
