Question

Which contributed to the outbreak of World War I? A) German domination in Morocco. B) English domination of Scotland. C) French domination of Alsace and Lorraine. D) Austro-Hungarian domination in the Balkans.

Answer 1

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The suppression of subject nationalities which contributed to the outbreak of World War I was best illustrated by Austro-Hungarian domination in the Balkans. This caused the "Pan-Slavism" movement which accelerated the deteriorating diplomatic condition in the early 1910s.

Answer 2

I believe the answer is: D. Austro-Hungarian domination in the Balkans.

Balkans is located in a very strategic region that connected the 4 Seas ( Black Sea, the Mediterranean, the Adriatic and the Aegean.)
Whoever dominated this region would control the flow of international trades toward almost all existing continent in the world. Because of this, there was a huge tension across Europe regarding who's going to control this region.
