Correct answers: extreme national pride, and unresolved disputes, jealousies, and suspicions.
Explanation: The main causes of the pre‑World War I arms race were nationalism (extreme national pride), imperial rivalries and unresolved disputes between powers, and mutual suspicion that led to militarism and alliance-building. "Terrorist threats" were not a major cause, and "fear of the Soviet Union" is incorrect because the Soviet Union did not exist until after the 1917 Russian Revolution.
