Correct answer choice is :

Segregation in the United States has been extensive since the colonial era. Legally or socially approved rights and benefits were given to white Americans but refused to all other races. European Americans were awarded elite privileges in matters of education, immigration, voting rights, citizenship, land possession, and criminal method over a period of time reaching from the 17th century to the 1960s. However, non-Protestant immigrants from Europe, especially Irish people, Poles, and Italians, usually agonized xenophobic isolation and other forms of ethnicity-based separation in American society until the late 1800s and early 1900s.

The correct answer is C. The population included many immigrants from both sides of the conflict

Explanation:

The World War I was a global conflict that began in 1914 and in which two main coalitions participated one formed by Britain, France, Russian and the other formed by Italy, Austria Hungary, and Germany. Although many other countries joined one of the collisions as the war developèd. In the case of the U.S., this nation had a neutral position during the first years of the war because the public opinion of the people who lived in the U.S. was divided, this considering an important percentage of the population were immigrants from different countries in Europe, indeed by 1910, there were around 13 millions of immigrants in the U.S. and for them it was difficult to support a war in which the country where they lived were against the natal country or supporting a war against the natal country of people they knew, which makes all the population and the US avoid entering to the war until 1917. Thus, from this information, it can be concluded the diversity in the U.S. discourage US leaders from entering World War I because the population included many immigrants from both sides of the conflict.
