Answer 1

The correct choice is:
Chiang Kai-Shek unified China, and protests erupted in Beijing due to the Treaty of Versailles.

(Chiang led the Nationalists to unify China in the 1920s; the Treaty’s transfer of German rights in Shandong to Japan sparked the May Fourth protests in Beijing in 1919.)
