The correct answer is C) because an attack on one country could lead to that country's allies becoming involved in the conflict.

The system of alliances in Europe before the First World War was a threat to peace because an attack on one country could lead to that country's allies becoming involved in the conflict.

This system of alliances was created to form a more solid front with the union of different nations that tried to maintain or defend their economic and political interests in Europe. So if one of those nations had conflicts with its enemy, it would receive the support of its allies.

That is how France, Great Britain, Russia, and the United States formed teh Allied Powers.

On the other hand, Austria-Hungary, Germany, and Italy formed the Triple Alliance. Italy left prior to WWI. The Ottoman Empire and Bulgaria entered the alliance prior to World War I. They were known as the Central Powers.

Why have some African nations taken steps towards democracy in recent years?
sasho [114]
The Movement Toward Democracy in Africa

The workshops were convened against the background of what many observers have called the ''second wave of liberation in Africa.'' Authoritarian regimes are being challenged by individuals and movements in search of more democratic forms of governance. Africans in many countries are showing remarkable persistence in forcing their leaders to comply with popular demands for political pluralism to replace the common one-party regimes. Calls for open and democratic governance, characterized by popular participation, competitive elections, and free flow of information can be heard in many African countries.

This new disposition toward democratization in Africa is a consequence of pressures both internal and external to African societies. To be sure, the continent's declining economic fortunes have made people more skeptical and critical of their governments, with new African thinking prompting individuals to move beyond old taboos. Demands from within African countries are pressing leaders to deliver on the promises of economic growth and prosperity they made in order to encourage the acceptance of structural adjustment policies supported by international financial institutions. The new insistence by external aid donors and creditors on good governance also has provided a window of opportunity for African democrats to push for transparency and accountability in their countries. Likewise, the worldwide democratic revolution and its corresponding summons to protect and promote individual human rights have contributed to generating protests
