I'm fairly certian that it is B) The Balkan Peninsula.
Answer:
Prior to the French and Indian War, the American Colonists wanted to extend their territory to the west of the Appalachian Mountains, in what is now the Midwest.
The British Crown opposed this because they did not want to have conflicts with the Native Americans in these lands, and with the French.
In the end, the conflict became impossible to avoid, and the British won, and the land was granted to the Empire.
Every year, the Federal Reserve conducts a massive survey of American households to paint a portrait of their economic habits and spirits. The recently published findings for 2017 are worth examining for what they say about who should — and shouldn't — get credit for the resilient U.S. economy.
There is nothing unusual about this. When the economy does well, presidents of both parties routinely brag about the results. Trump did just that last week with the latest jobs report. But as I — and many other commentators — have written, the $20 trillion economy is simply too big and complicated to be easily manipulated for partisan advantage.
