Correct answer: C. Formation of secret alliances

The other items all fall more into the category of "immediate causes."

Explanation:

Pre-war alliances between European nations were made in secret and elevated diplomatic tensions within those governments. Or sometimes the fact that alliances were being made was announced publicly -- but the negotiations about the alliances were conducted behind closed doors. And often the terms of the alliances were kept secret, so that only the parties involved knew the full details. This business of conspiring and posturing in regard to alliances contributed to an attitude of escalating nervousness and tension as the nations of Europe maneuvered for strength over against their perceived adversaries. This was a fundamental problem that lay behind the ultimate outbreak of the Great War (as World War I was called at the time it occurred).

Answer:

Response of Latin America to Policies Found in the Monroe Doctrine and the Roosevelt Corollary:

They were considered an unwelcome intrusion in Latin American affairs.

Explanation:

The Monroe Doctrine is the U.S. policy toward the Western Hemisphere, in which European nations were warned not to engage in further colonization of the geographical zone or continue the institutionalization of puppet monarchy in Latin America. It was delivered to Congress in December, 1823 during President James Monroe's message to Congress.

The Roosevelt Corollary of December 1904 stated that the United States would intervene as a last resort to ensure that other nations in the Western Hemisphere fulfilled their obligations to international creditors, and did not violate the rights of the United States or invite “foreign aggression to the detriment of the United States.

Latin American nations viewed the Monroe Doctrine policies and the Roosevelt Corollary as a combined intrusion into their sovereignty.
