Answer 1

This summarizes instances of genocide in Ukraine (the Holodomor), Cambodia (under the Khmer Rouge), Bosnia-Herzegovina (ethnic cleansing during the Bosnian War), and the Darfur region of Sudan (a government-backed campaign against ethnic groups), highlighting the tragic impact of these events.A) Ukraine/Holodomor (Option A):

Step-by-step explanation:

Ukraine/Holodomor: A devastating man-made famine known as Holodomor struck Soviet Ukraine in 1932-33. Under the policies of collectivization imposed by Joseph Stalin, the Soviet government seized farmlands and livestock, resulting in the sale of wheat on the foreign market. With quotas preventing distribution of grain to the local population, an estimated 7 million Ukrainians perished in the famine.

Cambodia: Under the Khmer Rouge regime led by Pol Pot, Cambodia experienced mass killings and forced labor from 1975 to 1979. Intellectuals, professionals, ethnic minorities, and perceived political opponents were targeted in what became known as the Killing Fields, where victims were forced to dig their own graves before execution.
