what was a common goal of the eight - nation alliance?
a. ending of the boxer rebellion
b. survival of the qing dynasty
c. recognition of britain as the main foreign power in china
d. leadership of germany in military actions in china

Explanation:

The Eight - Nation Alliance was formed to suppress the Boxer Rebellion. The Qing Dynasty was not their goal to ensure survival (the foreign powers had complex relations with the Qing, and ensuring its survival was not a common goal of the alliance). Britain was not the only main foreign power they wanted to recognize as dominant, and Germany's leadership in military actions in China was not a common goal. The main common goal was to end the Boxer Rebellion.

Answer:

A. Ending of the Boxer Rebellion
