Clicked the wrong letter, but this website should help you understand why http://www.proofreadnow.com/blog/bid/30440/North-East-South-or-West-Capitalize-or-Not

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

I am going with D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I still say B, the word 'east' at the end of D shouldn't be capitalized

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

directions such as North,South,East, and West, are capitalized when they are used as sections of the country. If they are used as compass directions, such as in answer choice C, they are not capitalized. Besides, in B, War should be capitalized
