The British were considered a super powerful army back then. They were organized, had more supplies, and had more skills and experience. The colonists on the other hand were just a bunch of men from towns with guns.
D. Your new-caught, sullen peoples, / Half-devil and half-child.
Explanation:
- Poem was written in 1899, at a time when Philippines were fighting for independence from the United States of America.
- Kipling clearly liked the idea of enslaving the people of one Asian country on the other side of the world. The White Man's Burden was written with the sole intention of persuading Americans not to give freedom to the Philippines.
- Poem is, by modern standards, extremely offensive. The author calls the population of another race your new-caught, sullen peoples / Half-devil and half-child.

B.
Covert oppression is less noticeable and overt oppression is observable action.
Nationalism heightened in the 19th century and heading into the 20th century. The nationalistic fervor by people in Europe had them each viewing their own nations as better than the others, in competition with the others. This would lead to an increase in tension between the nations.
Imperialism expanded on that nationalistic rivalry by carrying their competition to other parts of the globe. The nations of Europe sought to grab control for themselves over parts of Asia and Africa. When war erupted, that also meant it would become a world war because the European nations would include people from their imperial territories in the war.
Militarism grew ever more potent as the 20th century opened. The competition between nations included a massive arms race in terms of expanding armies and navies. The nations also sided up in competing military alliances and made military battle plans as to how they might fight a war if war came. When a cause for war broke out, all those preparations propelled the nations of Europe into war recklessly.
