Explanation:

To determine which option supports William II being a German nationalist, we analyze each choice:

• "He wanted to form a European union" is inconsistent with nationalism focused on one nation.
• "He believed his right to rule came from God" relates to divine right, not nationalism.
• "He resisted efforts to introduce democratic reform" pertains to political governance, not nationalism.
• "He launched a campaign to expand the navy and the German empire overseas" shows promoting German power and territory, a key nationalist action.

Answer:

D. He launched a campaign to expand the navy and the German empire overseas.
