  1. Answer B, C. Among the causes of the first world war were France's claim on the Alsace region and nationalism. In 1871, France lost the Alsace-Lorraine region to Germany in the Franco-Prussian war. Hence, the French wanted to place their claim on this region and bring it together as its territory. Nationalism was another driving factor in the cause of the first world war. Nationalists in Serbia and Austria-Hungary strived to maintain the idea of nationalism in their countries. As a result, they underestimated the impact of war as they were driven by greed and their sense of nationalism.
  2. Answer D (None of the above). The ultimate outcomes of the treaty of Versailles was that it stopped the war between Germany and Allied forces, led to Germany being blamed for the cause of the war and hence forced to pay reparations to the war and was forced to give up its overseas territories as well as give up territories to Belgium, Poland, Czechoslovakia and the return of the Alsace Lorraine region to France.
