The first one is wrong. There is always a need for raw materials. No one nation has everything. Besides imperialism is a 2 way street. You take the raw materials and sell back the finished manufactured product for those raw materials. B is incorrect in the context of this question.

C is almost a joke it is so untrue.

D <<<< answer. The constitution in the US is very well respected and for awhile. I can't complete this because of the connection I'm on, but I think I've covered the main idea.
