Question

question 26 of 43
in which nation did a u.s.-supported dictatorship \disappear\ up to 30,000 people?

a. chile
b. afghanistan
c. guatemala
d. argentina

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option A (Chile): Under Pinochet (U.S.-supported dictatorship), "disappearances" occurred, but the scale here matches Argentina's situation more closely? Wait, no—Argentina's dictatorship (1976 - 1983) had up to 30,000 "disappeared" people. Wait, correction: Argentina's military junta (1976–1983) was U.S.-supported (to some extent during the Cold War) and was responsible for the "Dirty War" with up to 30,000 disappearances. Chile's Pinochet also had disappearances, but the question's scale (30,000) aligns with Argentina. Wait, let's recheck: Argentina's dictatorship (Junta) had systematic forced disappearances of around 30,000. So the correct option is D. Argentina.

Answer:

D. Argentina
