Sagot :

Answer: B

Explanation:

I am not sure but the Balkan states attacked the Ottoman Empire during ww1 so we may call those states as something that will explode :)

The "Balkan powder keg," also termed the "powder keg of Europe," refers to the Balkans in the early part of the 20th century preceding World War I. European powers, such as the Russian Empire, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the German Empire and, to a lesser degree, the Ottoman Empire, the United Kingdom, and Kingdom of Italy.
