Explanation:

An armed conflict between Spain and the United States came to be known as the Spanish-American War.

This war put an end to the colonial empire of Spain in the Western Hemisphere and secured the United States to take the position of the pacific power. The peace treaty that was signed after the victory of the United States forced Spain to abandon their claim over Cuba and give the United States the supremacy over Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines. Moreover, as a result of the war, the United States gained control of Asia and the Americas.

The correct answer is letter B. Poland started a wave of strikes in 1988, leading to the Revolutions of 1989, and being followed by the other countries. In August of 1989, Tadeusz Mazowiecki, who was an anti-communist, was nominated Prime Minister of Poland. In September of the same year, a whole new non-communist government was settled in Poland and approved by the parliament. In 1990, Poland became the Social Democracy of the Republic of Poland.
