The correct answer is - c. Hispania.

Hispania is just a latin term for the name Spain, though it has to be taken in notice that the Spanish people don't call the country Spain, but it is Espana in their own respective Spanish language, which is essentially the same, just that the English term is adjusted to the English language.

The name of the country before it was called Spain is:

(C) Hispania.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

In the past, Hispania was the name used to refer to the Iberian Peninsula. This name was given by the Phoenicians. In 19 BC, the territory of Hispania was successfully conquered by the Romans through the Punic war.

Roman power in the region of Hispania did not prevail for so long. Evidently, in 711, the Muslim nation succeeded in taking control of Hispania and called it the Al Andalus region.

When the Muslim and Christian kingdoms were still in power, the name Hispania was used to call the Iberian region that controlled by Muslims only. But at the end of the 12th century, the Muslims kingdom Granada and the Christian kingdom such as, Leon, Castile, Navarra, Aragon, and Portugal joined in the same region called Spain (España). Nowadays, we know the Iberian region consists of two countries, Spain and Portugal.

These statements describe the Nile River.
aalyn [17]

Answer:

After reading the statement for answer, I noticed that some were true and some were false.  So, I'll assume your question is related to that fact.

Here's an analysis of the statements:

Ancient civilizations once lived along the Nile.

TRUE. That's why we encounter the pyramids in that region.

Fertile lands surround the Nile.

TRUE, since the Nile is THE most important source of water in the area, it's logical for it to be the location of agriculture.

Few people live near the river.

FALSE.  In Ancient times and today, the Nile shores host most of the population of Egypt, a large part of the country being essentially a chunk of the Sahara desert.

The Nile provides irrigation for surrounding farms.

TRUE. The Nile is virtually the only source of abundant water in the area.

The Nile runs through Libya and Tunisia.

FALSE. Libya and Tunisia are WEST of the country of Egypt and have nothing to do with the Nile.

So, depending if you had to find the TRUE or FALSE statements in this list, make your pick.  I hope that helps.
