Answer:

B. The characteristics of terrorism are hard to define.

Explanation:

(Check for photo proof at the bottom.)

Terrorism dates back all the way to the 1700's. Since then, the acts and reasons behind terrorism has changed over the centuries. The word derives from the French Revolution at the end of the 18th century. In 1798, the Académie Française, the French council for matters pertaining to the French language, defined terrorism for the first time; it meant a “system or rule of terror.” In the 1800's, terrorism changed from it's initial definition. The 19th century was a period when nationalist movements broke out across Europe. They mostly involved violent attacks against the government to achieve political goals, such as assassination of political figures. In the 1900's and 2000's, terrorist attacks mostly involved targeting civilians and using religious reasons to justify their actions. Starting in the 1960s, the United Nations held several meetings aimed at defining terrorist acts. However, because terrorism was used for very different reasons, certain countries refused to universally outlaw its use. To this day, world leaders struggle to define terrorism.

Here's the photo for proof.

Which was not an amusement that people enjoyed in the late 1800s or early 1900s?
KIM [24]
The correct answer is D. water parks.
Water parks started their construction during the late 1940s, so obviously people couldn't enjoy them prior to that moment. Coney island began building in 1840s, Barnum and Bailey circus was there since 1870s, and Nickelodeons (referring to cinemas) were there since late 1800s.
