Answer: the correct answer is B. to gain control of the German-speaking provinces of Alsace and Lorraine
Explanation: as a consequence of the war the German states proclaimed their union as the German Empire under the Prussian king Wilhelm I, finally uniting Germany as a nation-state. The Treaty of Frankfurt of 10 May 1871 gave Germany most of Alsace and some parts of Lorraine, which became the Imperial territory of Alsace-Lorraine (Reichsland Elsaß-Lothringen). The German conquest of France and the unification of Germany upset the European balance of power that had existed since the Congress of Vienna in 1815, and Otto von Bismarck maintained great authority in international affairs for two decades.
It encouraged the use of rich farmland and contact between cities.
This was a bit hard to understand but here we go.
1. The Americans with their population of 308,745,538 according to the census from 2010 make up only <u>5%</u> percent of the the total worlds population. Even though it makes up only about 5% of the world population the US is still the third largest country in the world in terms of population.
2. Still even though the the population of the United States makes only 5% of the total world population they make up about <u>50%</u> of the "world's top 1%" So that means that 50% of the biggest earners in the world are the citizens of the United States of America.
3.To further clarify this, it means that a <span>majority of Americans are in the <u>1%</u> of all earners in the
world, which is defined as those earning more than $34,000 a year. This takes into consideration the average earnings of all the citizens of the world the 1% is classified as those who earn more than 34,000 dollars.
