The correct answer is D: Arabs in the region wanted to gain independence from the Turkish leaders of the Ottoman Empire. The Arabs had been ruled by the Ottoman Empire since the 16th century, and, although they had been loyal to their Ottoman overlords, by the 20th century they had started to entertain the idea of becoming independent (inspired by Western ideas). This rise of Arab nationalism, which was promoted by the elites, was also fostered by the completion, in 1908, of the Hejaz railway, which connected Medina and Damascus (the central Arabian interior). Many tribes from this area thought that the new railway could mean more Ottoman presence and interference, and opposed it. Therefore, when the First World War broke out, the Arabs saw an ideal opportunity to rebel against the Ottoman Empire, by allying with the British.

Read this excerpt from a letter by Civil War soldier Sullivan Ballou:
Jlenok [28]

It was the time of Civil War when Abraham Lincoln had sent his regiment of soldiers to Rhode Island in order to dump down the rebellion.

Sullivan Ballou served as the contingent officer in American army. He wrote a very emotional final letter to his beloved wife Sarah. The letter echoed his patriotic fervor towards America. The twitch between love for his beloved wife and his duty towards protecting the motherland was emotionally portrayed.

This letter was never mailed but it was given to his widow after it was found in his suitcase. Sullivan died in the battle as he was hit by cannon fire. His body was exhumed and decapitated. Charred ashes were the remains found in the war field. This letter portrays a universal truth that courage does not mean gaining victory but it means facing Death for the cause of victory.
