Explanation:

Question 2

To determine the concept the map depicts, we analyze each option:

• Assimilation: Involves minority groups adopting the dominant culture. But the map (likely showing ethnic/territorial changes) doesn’t fit.
• Irredentism: A political movement aiming to reclaim territory with ethnic ties. Maps showing territorial claims or ethnic regions often relate. If the map has regions with ethnic ties seeking reunification, irredentism fits.
• Ethnic cleansing: Forcible removal of an ethnic group, which is more about population removal, not map - based territorial claims.
• Federalism: System of government with shared power, not a territorial concept shown on a map.
• Colonialism: Control of one territory by another, usually historical and about imperial control, not matching typical ethnic - territorial maps.

So the most probable is Irredentism.

Centripetal forces unify a country. Let's analyze:

• Brexit: UK leaving EU, a centrifugal (divisive) force.
• Sudan civil war: Divisive, centrifugal.
• 9/11 attacks: Led to national unity (e.g., shared purpose, security efforts), a centripetal force.
• UN creation: International, not within a country.
• EU formation: International, not within a country.

So the centripetal force is the 9/11 attacks.

NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) is a trade bloc between US, Canada, Mexico, reducing trade barriers.

• Nation - state: A political entity, NAFTA is not.
• Confederation: Loose alliance, NAFTA is a trade agreement.
• Military alliance: NAFTA is economic, not military.
• International nonprofit: NAFTA is a trade agreement, not a nonprofit.

So NAFTA is a trade bloc.

Answer:

B. Irredentism
