Question

genocide is defined as
forcing citizens to accept a new political regime they oppose.
relocating an ethnic group against its will through the use of force.
deliberately killing people for religious, ethnic, or political reasons.
dismantling a government without notice and banishing its leaders.

Explanation:

Genocide is defined by the intentional killing of a large number of people from a particular ethnic, religious, or political group. The first option is about political regime acceptance, the second is about forced relocation (which could be part of ethnic cleansing but not the core of genocide), and the fourth is about government dismantling. Only the third option aligns with the core concept of genocide as per international definitions (like the UN Genocide Convention).

Answer:

deliberately killing people for religious, ethnic, or political reasons.
