what belief contributed to the boxer rebellion?

a. christianity was a force for good in china.

b. foreign soldiers were working for japan.

c. christian missionaries caused looting in villages.

d. foreigners were responsible for many of the problems in china.

Explanation:

The Boxer Rebellion (1899-1901) was driven by anti-foreign sentiment among Chinese nationalists (the "Boxers"). They blamed foreign powers for China’s economic decline, territorial concessions, and cultural disruption from imperialism. Option D reflects this core belief. Options A is opposite to Boxer views; B is incorrect (foreign soldiers represented multiple powers, not just Japan); C misattributes looting (Boxers often targeted missionaries, not the reverse).

Answer:

D. Foreigners were responsible for many of the problems in China.
