the American Revolution is the only one of the four revolutions that did not take place at the same time as the others. Therefore, the correct option is (D).

The image displays a timeline of four significant revolutions that unfolded between 1775 and 1825:

American Revolution (1776-1783): The thirteen American colonies rebelled against British rule, ultimately establishing the United States of America as an independent nation.

French Revolution (1789-1799): A popular uprising overthrew the French monarchy, leading to a republic and significant social and political changes.

Haitian Revolution (1791-1804): Enslaved people in Saint-Domingue (now Haiti) fought for and achieved independence from France, establishing the world's first independent black republic.

Latin American Wars of Independence (1810-1825): Various Spanish and Portuguese colonies in South and Central America rebelled, gaining independence and establishing numerous new nations.

The question asks which revolution didn't occur concurrently with the others. Based on the timeline, the answer is D. The American Revolution.

It took place entirely within the timeframe 1776-1783, while the French Revolution, Haitian Revolution, and Latin American Wars of Independence all overlapped to varying degrees.

Here's a breakdown of the overlapping periods:

French & Haitian Revolutions: A portion of the Haitian Revolution (1791-1794) coincided with the later years of the French Revolution.

French & Latin American Revolutions: The early years of the Latin American Wars of Independence (1810-1814) overlapped with the tail end of the French Revolution.

Haitian & Latin American Revolutions: The Haitian Revolution's final years (1802-1804) overlapped with the beginning of the Latin American Wars of Independence.

Therefore, while all the revolutions except the American one had some temporal overlap, the American Revolution stands alone in its timeframe.
