Explanation:

• Bismarck's leadership unified Germany, fostering intense nationalism and building up a powerful military (militarism) to establish German dominance in Europe.
• The Meiji Restoration modernized Japan, with the government promoting strong national identity (nationalism) and rapidly expanding its military to compete with Western powers.
• The other options are incorrect: there was no "Golden Age" ending in these contexts; Queen Victoria's marriages had no direct link to these events; the Treaty of Versailles occurred decades later, after WWI.

Answer:

coincided with a rise in nationalism & militarism in those countries.
