Both were areas taken over by a foreign power and will be returned to their previous state is the statement which best describes relationship between Belgium and Alsace-Lorraine in the text.
Option C
<u>Explanation:</u>
Alsace-Lorraine was taken over by Germany from France in the Franco-Prussian war in 1871. Belgium was invaded by Germany during world War 1. At the End of the World War 1, The Treaty of Versailles was formed to declare the defeat of Germany in World War 1.
As per the Treaty, Germany returned the Alsace –Lorraine Territory back to France and they had to surrender small amount of German Territory to Belgium after the World War 1. Thus they lost control of both the states and many territories.

My best guess for the answer to this question is that the listener in My Last Duchess interacts with the speaker while the listener in Life in a Love does not. In My Last Duchess, a rich duke is having a conversation with a man about a portrait of his late wife while negotiating a deal to marry a new woman. Life in a Love is about a man's reaction to a woman possibly leaving him. In the first poem, there seems to be a more active conversation going on. I hope this helps. None of the other answers seem as relevant, so I think this is the right one.
<span>In Stephen Crane’s
short story, “An Episode of War,” we encounter a lieutenant whose name is never
is never disclosed to us. He becomes
injured when he is shot, and it is understood that out of pure luck (or bad
luck) that he happens to be struck by a bullet—a random bullet. It is during one of the lieutenant’s daily
routines (rationing coffee) that he is injured.
