The correct concept in political geography is (c) Colonialism and nationalism

What is political geography?

The study of political geography looks at how geography and politics interact, specifically how geographic features and spatial patterns affect political institutions, processes, and results. It entails examining political boundaries, power dynamics inside and between states, the influence of geography on political behavior, and the relationships between states and regions.

The image shows a group of individuals holding flags of different countries. This represents nationalism, the idea that citizens of a certain nation ought to live in their own homeland. But the picture also implies that these individuals are from a colonial nation because it depicts them together in a foreign land. The act of one nation annexing another and controlling it as its own is known as colonialism.

As a result, the picture represents nationalism and colonialism. The only response option that covers both of these ideas is option (c).
