a. establishing the united nations

b. making european countries pay large fines

c. handing over a defeated germany to the soviet union

d. banning militaries in all axis powers

Explanation:

The United Nations was created after World War II with the main aim of maintaining international peace and security, which is a key strategy to prevent future international conflicts. Making European countries pay large fines (B) was more of a punitive measure related to war reparations in some cases but not a conflict - prevention strategy. Handing over defeated Germany to the Soviet Union (C) was part of the post - war division of Germany and not a general conflict - prevention strategy. Banning militaries in all Axis powers (D) was not a comprehensive or long - term strategy for preventing international conflicts as it was mainly focused on the Axis powers and not a global approach.

Answer:

A. Establishing the United Nations
