As has been pointed out, attempts were made at compromise BEFORE Pearl Harbor.
We don't know what kind of "board" you are to create. A timeline would indicate that efforts at compromise were made BEFORE the war. Once the war started, no one was willing to (or able) to compromise.
I will not respond to further questions about compromise during the war.
By the way, extreme efforts were made by the British, particularly Prime Minister Chamberlain, to compromise with Hitler in Europe. The result was invasion of Poland by Germany and all out war until the Axis was totally defeated. WW2 in both East and West was a time when satisfactory compromise could not be reached. The more Chamberlain compromised, the worse the conflict reared.
Many compromises were made AMONG THE ALLIES about how to wage the war, when to invade and where, etc., but not WITH the enemies.
