<em>The Berlin Wall being destructed.</em>

Explanation:

When World War II finally ended, Germany got split up into two parts. West Germany was taken control by the Allies, while East Germany was controlled by the Soviet Union.

East Germany was run by a government that centered around communism, which overtime many people did not agree with. The citizens that resided in East Germany started leaving and going to West Germany. So many people started leaving that the government of East Germany started worrying about it and decided that they needed to take action.

This lead East German leaders to build the Berlin Wall, which separated West and East Germany from each other. If any East Germans were caught trying to move to the West, they would be imprisoned or even shot on the spot.

Eventually, people from across the globe caught word of this and wanted to help free East German people from communist rule. United States President, Ronald Reagan gave a speech in which he clearly stated he wanted to tear down the Berlin Wall and free the people. A couple of years or so later, the Berlin wall finally got torn down and the collapse of the Soviet Union came with it. This freed Germany and could now obtain a freely elected government.

Answer:  C) showed the US backed the independence of Latin America.

Explanation:

The United States was still young at the time the Monroe Doctrine was declared, and did not have a powerful navy to be patrolling the South American coast at that time.  But the US did want to keep European powers from encroaching into the Western Hemisphere, and wanted to put Europe on notice to that effect.  

President James Monroe asserted the doctrine in his annual address to Congress in 1823.  The doctrine was that the US would not interfere in European affairs, but also would view any attempts by European powers to take control of any nation in the Western Hemisphere as a hostile act against the United States.

As reported by the US Office of the Historian, there were some additional motives in mind in the US position, in addition to backing the independence of Latin American nations.  "Monroe’s administration forewarned the imperial European powers against interfering in the affairs of the newly independent Latin American states or potential United States territories. While Americans generally objected to European colonies in the New World, they also desired to increase United States influence and trading ties throughout the region to their south."
