o c the austro - hungarian and russian empires would be carved up to form several independent nations drawn on ethnic lines.
o d germany would lose its colonies in cameroon, german west africa, and german east africa.

Explanation:

Self - determination means that people have the right to form their own independent nations. When the Austro - Hungarian and Russian Empires were carved up to form several independent nations drawn on ethnic lines, it was an example of self - determination. Option a is about territorial control transfer (not self - determination), option b is about war guilt and reparations (not self - determination), and option d is about colonial loss (not self - determination).

Answer:

c. The Austro - Hungarian and Russian Empires would be carved up to form several independent nations drawn on ethnic lines.
