I would go with the answer E). Just because slavery ended years ago doesn't mean that's its still over even to this day, it use to be about gender as well back than where women couldn't vote but no one cares about that today, the things people care about is race because as the famous quote someone said, humans hate what they don't understand, so most races don't understand why people are all different, so they want to hate them since they don't understand and also get higher authority as well, but to get back to topic race is the most common thing today that encourages people to leave and migrate cause they might not feel welcome.
Their attitude/ beliefs would change in order for the discomfort feeling to reduce. So they might make it up by making another decision with a better outcome to make up for the previous poor decision.
One key similarity would be that they all started off as colonial powers ruled by larger power in Europe. Most of these nations gained independence through revolution as well, while a smaller amount gained it by the European state giving the colony independence (canada, Jamaica), Cuba was also technically both (revolution against spanish to be ruled by America, given Independence by America). A big difference is that most of North america was ruled by the British and the French, while South and Central America were settled predominantly by the Spanish and Portuguese. This resulted in huge differences in culture, including language (English/french vs Spanish/Portuguese) and religion (Protestantism vs Catholicism).
Probably the greek goddess Athena.
