Answer:
B) Being granted independence
Step-by-step explanation:
As the other answer states, the answer is truly wishing to be independent. However, some of the information is false.
Many of the colonial freedoms and rights were taken away during the Age of Exploration, which would occur way before World War I. The only parts in which their freedoms and rights were severely limited during World War I focused mostly in Africa, the Middle East, and Western Asia. In fact, many of these places were the strongholds of the "empires" that existed in the age (British Empire, German Empire, to name a few). During World War I, with the shortage of man power, the European nations drew upon their colonies to furnish manpower to help them fight wars, in which the colonies asked in return to be granted their freedom from mostly oppression and looking down upon. That is not too say that all their freedoms and rights were taken away. Rather, it is spun in a different tale and light, as many of their natural resources were taken to create products that cater to the "needs" of the first-world countries, while the ruling country fail to benefit the people of the colonies. They had their own versions of freedom and rights, but when comparing (which is a dangerous thing to do), you will then think that freedom and rights were non-existent. Of course, that is not too say that slavery and forced labor is anything close to freedoms and rights, but saying that "all freedoms and rights" were taken away is a bit extreme. Instead, I would like to suggest that colonial areas, in helping the Europeans in their time of need, would instead like to be seen as equals to their host countries, and that they also be seen as humans as well, rather than anything lesser. Freedom and Rights are all created by humans to suggest that each individual has something they can fall upon when they are in dire situations, (as such as the freedom and right to choose, even when it seems like there is only one option, or the right on how to react, etc.)
In essence, the colonial people would rather be seen as equals to their ' " masters" ', and to be in equal footing and see each other eye to eye. This was soon upheld mostly after World War II, and during the cold war and following it.
