Answer 1

The correct option is A 1831 to 1925

London became the world's largest city from about 1831 to 1925. Rising traffic on the city roads led to the creation of the world's first metro system. Because of this rapid growth, London became one of the first cities in human history to reach a population of one million, and was the first ever to surpass five million.
