Question

question 4 (multiple choice worth 5 points) (03.06r mc) why did some german americans oppose world war i? they opposed the war as conscientious objectors. they supported the might of their nation of origin. they supported the french occupation of belgium. they resented austria - hungary’s occupation of germany.

Explanation:

Many German Americans maintained cultural and emotional ties to their nation of origin. This led them to support Germany during World War I, and thus oppose U.S. involvement in the conflict against Germany. The other options are incorrect: conscientious objectors were a separate group not specific to German Americans; German Americans would not support French occupation of Belgium; and Austria-Hungary was an ally of Germany, not an occupier of it.

Answer:

B. They supported the might of their nation of origin.
