The correct answer is A. Both wars experienced insurgencies after the ruling regimes were defeated.

Explanation:

The War in Afghanistan began on October 7, 2001, almost a month after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The Bush administration accused the Taliban of providing the base of operations for the terrorist group Al Qaeda, which was adjudicated responsibility for the attacks. In December 2001, the Taliban government had been defeated and a new democratic government had been established, but this war lasted until December 2014 with a majority American presence, and from January 2015 to the present, with a gradual decline in American participation, due to to the various insurgent groups of an Islamic extremist nature that continue to operate in the country and pose a threat to the United States.

In turn, the Iraq War began on March 20, 2003, due to accusations by the American government that the Saddam Hussein regime owned or was developing weapons of mass destruction. In this case, the Hussein regime was overthrown and a provisional government was established in May, but the war continued until 2011 due to the presence of different insurgent groups in the area, such as Al Qaeda, the Baathists, or Ansar Al Sunnah. In fact, after 3 years without American participation, in 2014 President Obama had to send forces back to the country, due to the unstable situation of the Iraqi government.
