1."Slaves are in the power of masters, a power derived from the law of nations: for among all nations it may be remarked that ma

sters have the power of life and death over their slaves, and that everything acquired by the slave is acquired for the master.
2.But at the present day none of our subjects may use unrestrained violence towards their slaves, except for a reason recognized by law.

It says:  "for among all nations it may be remarked that masters have the power of life and death over their slaves, and that everything acquired by the slave is acquired for the master." and "But at the present day none of our subjects may use unrestrained violence towards their slaves, except for a reason recognized by law." So from that we can draw the conclusion that "<span>Masters were allowed to kill their own slaves, if they had a reason for doing so." (B) is correct.</span>

Answer:

Full Detailed Answer (Ps:I made it long and informative be patient and read it carefully).

The effects of war are widely spread and can be long term or short term.[2] Soldiers experience war differently than civilians, although either suffer in times of war, and women and children[citation needed] suffer unspeakable atrocities in particular. In the past decade, up to two million of those killed in armed conflicts were children.[2] The widespread trauma caused by these atrocities and suffering of the civilian population is another legacy of these conflicts, the following creates extensive emotional and psychological stress.[3] Present-day internal wars generally take a larger toll on civilians than state wars. This is due to the increasing trend where combatants have made targeting civilians a strategic objective.[2] A state conflict is an armed conflict that occurs with the use of armed force between two parties, of which one is the government of a state.[4] "The three problems posed by intra‐state conflict are the willingness of UN members, particularly the strongest member, to intervene; the structural ability of the UN to respond; and whether the traditional principles of peacekeeping should be applied to intra‐state conflict".[5] Effects of war also include mass destruction of cities and have long lasting effects on a country's economy.[6] Armed conflict has important indirect negative consequences on infrastructure, public health provision, and social order.[7] These indirect consequences are often overlooked and unappreciated.
