Answer:

a. Krebs

Step-by-step explanation:

The town of Krebs is often considered "Oklahoma's Little Italy." This is because of the heavy Italian influenced that the city received. The town of Krebs originally received its Italian residents when workers were recruited to work in a coal mining camp in the 1870s. By the time Oklahoma became a state in 1907, nearly half the population of the town was comprised of Italian-Americans.
