Answer 1

The most accurate conclusion about the role of war in uniting Germany is:

**C. The Franco-Prussian war convinced German states to unite under one nation state.**

The Franco-Prussian War (1870-1871) played a crucial role in the unification of Germany. It rallied the German states against a common enemy, France, and fostered a sense of national identity and unity. The victory in the war contributed to the establishment of the German Empire in 1871, with the unification largely driven by Otto von Bismarck's efforts.
