Question 1 • Geography

Which statement provides an example of an ethnic minority group more likely to identify with its ethnicity rather than the country of residence?

Answer
A
an ethnic minority receives passports that grant members special privileges
B
an ethnic minority may not express interest in forming a separate nation
C
an ethnic minority may not feel represented by its national government
D
an ethnic minority wins a number of seats in a nation’s legislature

Explanation

If an ethnic minority does not feel represented by the national government, its members may feel less connected to the country of residence and more connected to their ethnic group. That makes C, “an ethnic minority may not feel represented by its national government,” the best example. The other choices describe privileges, political goals, or legislative representation, but do not directly show a stronger ethnic than national identification.
