This is a simple sentence because it contains only one subject and one predicate.

So Option D is correct: simple sentence.

Answer:

The sentence above is a simple sentence (D).

Step-by-step explanation:

The sentence above is a simple sentence. Simple sentences contain only one independent clause. An independent clause is a group of words that can stand alone as a sentence because it represents a complete thought. It has both a subject and a verb. The subject of the sentence is hte NP "Germany" and the predicate is the VP "was in political upheaval".
