The correct answer is: D) Over one million people were persecuted and killed.
The Armenian Genocide took place in the Ottoman Empire from srping 1915 through autumn 1916 under the Young Turk government. It refers to the deportation and mass killing campaign against the Armenians living there. It is estimated that aproximately 1.5 million Armenians populated that region before the genocide, at least 664,00, to 1.2 million were killed. It is important to say that the main objective of the government was to destroy the whole armenian population, that is the reason it is called a genocide.
Some survivors reached the desert of Syria living in concentration camps starving to death and being massacred until 1916.
Your question is in reference to the beginnings of World War I. The answer is:
<h2>Germany felt threatened because Russia mobilized its forces on Germany's eastern borders.</h2>
Explanation/context:
The systems of alliances and military plans which were put in place before World War I presupposed a major war between the countries which were tied together with alliances. The Triple Entente had Britain, France and Russia as allies. Germany was part of a group of allies in opposition to the Triple Entente.
So here's what happened to start the Great War (World War I). When an Austrian prince and his wife were assassinated in Serbia, the Austrian Empire threatened the nation of Serbia with retaliatory action (even though the assassination was carried out by a terrorist group, not the Serbian government). Russia responded to Austria's threat, because Russia was bound to protect its Slavic ally, Serbia. Germany responded to the mobilization of Russian troops, and when Germany declared war on Russia in 1914, they implemented the Schlieffen Plan (drawn up by one of their generals), which called for them to go on attack vs. France. That pulled France and Britain into the war immediately as well, and the war spread and became a global conflict.
The practice of forcibly removing Native Americans from their traditional land started at the same time that Europeans began their colonization of America. However, by the early 19th century, the practice had become systematic and institutionalized. The practice consisted of forcing the Native populations to move to smaller, less desirable areas so that their native land could be occupied by Europeans. This cruel practice left lasting effects on the Native population.
For example, tribes often lost their means of livelihood by being subjected to a new, more limited area. This land often did not allow them to pursue traditional means of subsistence (such as fishing or hunting) in quantities that could sustain the community.
When tribes were reliant on farming, the impact was equally tragic, as the allocated land was often infertile or insufficient. These two factors meant that the tribes experienced a huge cultural loss in terms or traditional knowledge and customs.
The relocation also resulted in violence. Hostility between tribes was common, as they were pushed into smaller, closer territories. Another type of violence came from the European who tried to keep the Native people inside their reservations. Those who opposed were often attacked, and this strategy resulted in enormous massacres of Native people.
