The correct answer is:
B. Imperial powers extracted resources to export for their own financial benefit.
During European colonization of Indochina, the imperial powers, such as France, extracted valuable resources from the region to fuel their own economies. This included resources like rubber, tin, rice, and other agricultural products. The extraction of these resources was aimed at benefiting the colonizing powers financially, rather than investing in the development of the region itself.
To arrive at this answer, you could examine historical sources and accounts of European colonization in Indochina. This would include studying the actions and motivations of the colonial powers, as well as the impact of resource extraction on the local economy and population. Analyzing primary and secondary sources, such as historical records, economic reports, and scholarly works, could provide insight into the effect of European colonization on Indochina.

My apologies for the confusion. The correct answer to your initial question is:
B. Imperial powers extracted resources to export for their own financial benefit.
Regarding the question about which Southeast Asian nation escaped European rule, the correct answer is:
Thailand.
Thailand, formerly known as Siam, is the only country in Southeast Asia that was able to maintain its independence and avoid colonization by European powers. This was due to a combination of factors such as diplomatic strategy, internal reforms, and the ability to play European powers against each other.
