Which caused Great Britain and France to declare war on Germany in 1939 was the invasion of Poland by the German army on September 1, 1939. There were already tensions between these three countries since the beginning of the Spanish war in 1936, but the war was not officially declared.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The aggressive attitude of Adolf Hitler since his election as leader of Germany in 1933 worried France, Great Britain, and other European countries. The First World War had been so horrible, and no one wanted to take the risk to live another war.

After losing from France in 1918, Germany had to sign the Treaty of Versailles which imposed many hard conditions to accept. But when Adolf Hitler lead Germany, he didn't respect this treaty anymore.

He asked all Germans to participate in military training and gradually reinforced his army in all the cities. He started to attack all over Europe. First, he helped the dictator Franco to take power in Spain. Then he attacked the countries around Germany such as Austria and Czechoslovakia to expand his territory. After that, Hitler's biggest attack was when he invaded Poland which caused the Second World War and became the reason for France and Great Britain to declare war.

The correct answer is A.

The Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 was a United States federal law prohibiting all immigration of Chinese labor.

From 1870 to 1880, Chinese immigrants represented the largest group of nonwhite immigrants in the U.S. at the time.

The Chinese immigrants were mostly men and they provided cheap labor, often working on farms, railroad construction and in low-paying industrial jobs. They were seen as unfair economic competition by many Americans. They were blamed for low wages and reduced job opportunities and for bringing drugs, crime and prostitution to the States.

<em>To many, they posed an economic danger as they held job taken away from white Americans.</em>
