Question

Which is not an accurate description of the role nationalism played in causing World War I ? It led to revolution against Russian imperialism. It fueled rivalries between European nations. It provoked the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. It encouraged European nations to expand their empires.

Answer 1

It encouraged European nations to expand their empires.

Step-by-step explanation:

Nationalism did not contribute to the European nations being eager to expand their empires. In fact, the nationalism is a term that is used to describe two things:

• The first one being the attitude that members of the country have when they care about the identity of their country or nation.
• Second, the term describes the actions that the members of a nation take when they are seeking self-determination. It means that the members can be able to make decisions that affect the face of the country in the future. Thus, the expansion of the empires was a foreign policy sponsored by governments, not the general populace that was concerned about the internal affairs of the country.
