Answer 1

The correct answer is D. People in the Middle East grew resentful of Western culture and worked to rid the region of its influence.

During the period between World War I and World War II, many people in the Middle East experienced significant discontent and resentment towards European colonial and imperial influences. This response was largely due to a sense of loss of sovereignty, cultural imposition, and socio-political grievances stemming from Western domination. As a result, various nationalist movements emerged, seeking to assert independence and reclaim cultural identity from Western influences.
