militarism, nationalism, imperialism, assassination
militarism, alliances, nationalism, assassination

Explanation:

To determine the four long - term causes of World War I, we analyze each option:

• The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand was a short - term trigger event, not a long - term cause. So options with "assassination" can be eliminated.
• The four long - term causes of World War I are militarism (the build - up of military forces), alliances (the formation of military alliances like the Triple Entente and Triple Alliance), nationalism (strong feelings of national pride and identity), and imperialism (the competition for colonies and resources). The first option contains these four long - term causes.

Answer:

A. militarism, alliances, nationalism, imperialism
