a!. selling farm products to anyone who wanted to buy them
b!. sending representatives to the nations at war
c!. protecting the citizens of a neutral nation
d!. selling or giving weapons to the weakest nation at warWww@QuestionHome@Com

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

D!. Protection of neutral nations is regarding as a neutral and non-aggressive act (i!.e!. neutral in itself)!. While B is less desirable than either C or A, D is the only answer that clearly shows support for one side or another in a way that destroys neutrality!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Neutrality means you would treat both combatants in a war equally!. Therefore, only a represents neutrality!.

Why not the others!?
b - representatives would be sent, to discuss/intervene in the war
c - protecting the citizens of a neutral nation would interfere with the intentions of at least one of the combatant nations
d - Would only show neutrality if you sold weapons to BOTH nationsWww@QuestionHome@Com

I think you can reason this one out!. Which one of the choices (in itself) helps one or more of the warring nations but not all of them!? It might help if you consider that you have two friends fighting and you don't want to pick a side!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

D!. It means that the neutral nation is trying to tilt the war away from the strong warring nation towards the weaker one!. That means that they want the weaker nation to win and they are no longer neutral!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

A, B, C, D!. All answers involve an ACTION being taken and would have an affect on one or both nations involved and thus would not be neutral!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
