Answer:

The correct answer is A. The ethnic population that was brutally killed because of the nationalism and prejudice of the Young Turks was the Armenian people.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Armenian genocide was the forced deportation and the attempt to extinguish the Armenian ethnicity in which an undetermined number of Armenian civilians, calculated between one and a half million and two million people, were persecuted and killed by the government of the Young Turks in the Ottoman Empire, from 1915 to 1923.
