Why was Balkan nationalism not merely a local problem for Europe?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because alliances and interests of great powers became linked with it
The governing concept is the internationalisation of a regional conflict. Balkan disputes involved local ethnic and territorial claims, but Russia, Austria-Hungary and other great powers connected them to their alliances, security concerns and imperial interests. This made a local crisis capable of drawing in several European states. Option A is correct; B, C and D are factually false or irrelevant.
