Answer:

C. The breakup of Yugoslavia led to ethnic cleaning and conflicts.

Step-by-step explanation:

The breakup of Yugoslavia and the appearance of several republics representing the nationalities that integrated the previous countries (Serbs, Montenegrans, Croatians, Eslovenes) contributed to the rise of regimes with nationalist background and whose speech encouraged the genocide of other neighboring nations. The most sound case was Serbia, which was ruled by Slodoban Milosevic, whose regime endorse the idea of annexing parts of the former Yugoslavia to create the Great Serbia.

The right answer is C.
