How did the Nuremberg trials strengthen the idea that obeying orders is not an excuse for crime?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: They held leaders responsible for serious crimes

The direct answer is D: the Nuremberg trials held leaders and other responsible people accountable for serious crimes. After the Second World War, these trials prosecuted major Nazi officials for crimes against peace, war crimes, and crimes against humanity. Their importance included the principle that a person cannot escape responsibility simply by saying, “I was obeying orders.” A command may explain circumstances, but it does not automatically excuse participation in a grave crime. Option D is correct because it states the central idea of individual accountability. Option A is wrong because criminals were not rewarded. Option B is wrong because the trials recognised and examined war crimes rather than denying them. Option C is wrong because Nazi rule was not restored. Exam cue: Nuremberg means post-war justice and responsibility for international crimes.
