Explain how land-based and maritime empires gave way to new states in the 20th century.

The land-based and maritime empires gave way to new states in the 20th century when the older, land-based empires such as the Ottoman empire, the Russian empire, and the Qing empire collapsed due to a combination of internal and external factors.

Answer 2

Answer:

When the land-based and maritime empires such as the Ottoman Empire, Spanish Empire, Russian Empire, and Qing Dynasty ended due to a combination of internal and external conflicts, they gave way to new states in the 20th century including the Czech Republic, Paula in the Pacific Ocean and many other smaller nationalities gained independence after Austria-Hungary was dissolved after the First World War. Nationalism increased in the 1900s and as a result, the people piled up their desire to gain independence and waited for the right time. After the powder keg exploded in the Balkans and WWI ended, nationalists took advantage of the weak governments and leading powers. In such a way, while the governments were weak, they ultimately gave way to the rising nationalist feelings and rebellions soon turned into independence for many nations in the 20th century.
