Question

what was a positive result of the protests during the arab spring of 2011?
free elections for leaders were held for the first time.
leaders of three countries were forced out of power.
protesters gained unwavering support from the united states.
protesters were able to overthrow their governments.

Explanation:

The Arab Spring protests led to the ousting of leaders in Tunisia (Zine El Abidine Ben Ali), Egypt (Hosni Mubarak), and Libya (Muammar Gaddafi). Free elections weren't uniformly held across all affected countries in a way that was fully stable and enduring as a direct immediate positive result. The US support was not unwavering and had its own geopolitical considerations. And while there were regime changes in some places, it wasn't a case of protesters uniformly overthrowing governments in a fully successful and stable long - term sense across all involved nations.

Answer:

Leaders of three countries were forced out of power.
