Solution

The correct option is D Belgium
Belgium is a linguistically and culturally diverse country. Its constitution was amended four times to accommodate the interests of the different communities inhabiting the country. It was able to avoid civil war because of equal representation, division of power, and community governance. This made Belgium a role model for the principle of accommodation in Europe.
