Answer:

The correct answer is B) a system that allowed the winning political party to give jobs to supporters

Explanation:

A spoils system is where a winning political party or candidate gives favor to their supports by giving them key positions or jobs in the government. For, generations this was common practice in the United States.

However, things began to change in the 19th Century as the people protested and asked more for transparency.

By the mid-20th Century, there was a clear difference between politics and civil service jobs.

However, many believe the practice still remains today. A recent example was Trump giving key White House positions to supports like Brietbart co-founder Steve Bannon.

In countries like India and Bangladesh, this is still common place.

Yakvenalex [24]

In China between 1989 and 1901, a Chinese secret organization called the Yihequan (Righteous and harmonious fists) led an uprising in northern China against the spread of Western and Japanese influence there. The group practiced certain boxing and rituals in the belief that this made them invulnerable. Their members, referred to by Westerners as Boxers killed foreigners and Chinese Christians and destroyed foreign property. By the terms of the Boxer Protocol, which officially ended the rebellion in 1901, China agreed to pay more than $330 million in reparations.
