Question

which of the following did austria-hungary seize in 1908, setting off tensions in europe?
○ the border area it shared with italy
○ the ottoman territory of bosnia and herzegovina
○ the country of serbia
○ germany’s colonies in africa

Explanation:

To solve this, we recall historical events: In 1908, Austria - Hungary annexed (seized) the Ottoman territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The border area with Italy was not seized in 1908, Austria - Hungary did not seize the whole country of Serbia, and seizing Germany’s African colonies is unrelated to this event.

Answer:

the Ottoman territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina
