B. France
C. Germany
D. Spain

Answers

Answer:

D. Spain

Explanation:

The European domain through the world was a result of the changes that started in the 18th century that would be radicalized in the 19th century. This period in history is traditionally referred to as New Imperialism. Several points were crucial to allow these political and social transformations such as scientific and technological development, industrialization and urban spread. The European domain in colonial areas was not something new since, during the 15th and 16th centuries, Portugal and Spain were pioneering in the process. However, most of the original territories controlled by the Iberian nations, and concentrated in America, had already achieved independence. That's why Spain was not dominating any part of the world in the New Imperialism period.
The answer is D) Spain because the four groups were Germany, France , Britain , and Italy
