Question

Due to serious ethnic and cultural differences, some regions have asked for a separate flag, a separate constitution, and some degree of autonomy from the government of country X.

These ideas are perceived by the government of country X as a threat to the _________ of the country.

• A. geographical unity
• B. political unity
• C. religious unity
• D. linguistic unity

Answer 1

The correct option is B political unity

Historical marginalisation and cultural conflict has led to some regions demanding partial political autonomy and more legislative powers for their territories in countries across the world, just like the hypthetical country 'X' in the question. Such efforts are often considered by the governments of such countries as an obstacle to preserving the unity of the state in its present form.
