Question 2 • Online World History B

What was an effect of the Arab Spring movement in Libya?

Answer
A
Anti-government protestors clashed with government soldiers, which led to a civil war.
B
Mass demonstrations in the capital city resulted in the removal of President Hosni Mubarak.
C
An armed insurrection against the regime led to the overthrow and death of Moammar Gadhafi.
D
Security forces unleashed a crackdown on anti-government protests, which resulted in a number of deaths.

Explanation

In Libya, protests against Moammar Gadhafi’s government escalated into an armed rebellion and civil war. Rebel forces eventually overthrew Gadhafi, who was killed in 2011, so the correct choice is “An armed insurrection against the regime led to the overthrow and death of Moammar Gadhafi.” The choice about Hosni Mubarak describes events in Egypt, not Libya.
