Question 8 • World History

Which statement best describes Germany’s submarine campaign during World War I?

Answer
A
German submarines made unrestricted attacks on ships.
B
Germany made no use of submarines.
C
German submarines prevented all transatlantic shipping.
D
Germany used submarines in land and sea attacks.

Explanation

Germany used U-boats to attack ships at sea during World War I, including merchant vessels. At times, it pursued unrestricted submarine warfare, meaning submarines attacked ships without warning in designated waters. Germany did not stop all transatlantic shipping, and submarines were not used for land attacks, so the best choice is “German submarines made unrestricted attacks on ships.”
