anonymous · Answer

so its not "A" or "C"

anonymous · Answer

A

anonymous · Answer

its either "B"or"D"

anonymous · Answer

I'm pretty sure Britain colonized Egypt at least.

anonymous · Answer

Well Spain and Greece aren't in the Middle East sooo...

anonymous · Answer

Well I found information confirming British influence in Kuwait, but then again, it's not like that was of much help with the last two attempts. >_>

anonymous · Answer

But since Spain and Greece are not even located in the Middle East as stated by @scapeplan I guess that would make Bahrain and Kuwait correct by default.

anonymous · Answer

But why can't it be A?

anonymous · Answer

We already tried A and the assignment said that it was incorrect,

anonymous · Answer

Oh. Well definitely go with Bahrain and Kuwait.

I know right? I found tons of stuff between Britain with Syria and Egypt. I'm kind of confused on this one. Maybe the choices didn't fit the timeline?

anonymous · Answer

Maybe Syria was under French control then? idk otherwise.
