Explanation:

Question 16

The underlined word is "Nationalism", but the policy of building up armed forces is militarism. So we need to change "Nationalism" to "Militarism". The original statement is false.

Trench Warfare was the major form of fighting on the Western Front during World War I for more than three years. So the statement is true.

U - boats were German submarines, not battleships. So we need to change "battleships" to "submarines". The original statement is false.

Answer:

False (change "Nationalism" to "Militarism")
