answer choices for both underline lines:
both Austria and Prussia
neither Austria and Prussia
only austria
only prussia****
i think all the blanks are only prussia
To determine the correct answer, we can look into the historical context of the 1700s.
In the 1700s, the region of Poland was facing political instability and was vulnerable to external threats. Both Austria and Prussia took advantage of this situation and sought to expand their own territories at the expense of Poland.
However, it was primarily Prussia that attacked and took land away from Poland during this period. Prussia, under the leadership of Frederick II (also known as Frederick the Great), engaged in a series of conflicts with Poland and eventually annexed significant portions of its territory.
On the other hand, Austria did not directly attack or take land away from Poland in the 1700s. Though Austria had its own ambitions in the region, its involvement in the territorial disputes with Poland occurred primarily in the context of the partitions of Poland, which took place in the late 18th century.
Therefore, the correct answer is "only Prussia" for both underline lines.
