What is the most accurate meaning of showing a sword in Germania’s hand?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: National defence and readiness for struggle
In an allegorical image, an object communicates a political quality rather than merely describing a person. The sword held by Germania suggested that the nation possessed the strength to defend itself and was prepared for struggle. Thus option A is correct. A commercial agreement, agricultural reform, or religious penance has no direct connection with the sword’s nationalist symbolism.
