Question

In Sorrieu's 1848 print depicting his utopian vision, which two nations are shown leading the procession past the statue of Liberty, as they were already nation-states by that time?
(A) France and England
(B) Germany and Italy
(C) The United States and Switzerland
(D) Poland and Hungary

Accepted Answer

## Model Answer **(C) The United States and Switzerland** According to Sorrieu's print, the United States and Switzerland lead the procession, as they were already established nation-states by 1848. Source: The Rise of Nationalism in Europe, Section — Events and Processes (Chapter 1) ## Explanation The passage clearly states: *"Leading the procession…are the United States and Switzerland, which by this time were already nation-states."* France follows next, then Germany. Students often confuse this with France and Germany, but those two come *after* the US and Switzerland. Always read the source text carefully for sequence-based MCQs.
