Hints

Open one hint at a time and try again before the next.

Hint 1

Place each event on a timeline using its year.

Hint 2

Compare the dates of the unification of Italy and Germany.

Step-by-step solution

Each step shows the marks it earns, as an examiner would award them. Checked by an independent re-solve from the question paper.

  1. Defeat of Napoleon (1815), Treaty of Constantinople (1832), Unification of Italy (1861), Unification of Germany (1871). Order: II, I, IV, III?

  2. Note Italy was unified in 1861 and Germany in 1871, so the true order is II, I, III, IV. This is not offered; the scheme only says marks are given if the question is attempted, so the question is treated as flawed.

    1 mark

Answer: Marks are awarded for attempting. The nearest option is (C) II, I, IV, III, but the true order is II, I, III, IV.
