Transcript text: What was the name of territory France had obtained dominion over by 1887?
Solution
The answer is B: French Indochina.
Explanation:
French Dominion: This is not a specific name for a territory. The term "dominion" generally refers to the power or right of governing and controlling; sovereign authority. It is not the name of a specific territory that France controlled.
French Indochina: This is the correct answer. By 1887, France had established control over a region in Southeast Asia known as French Indochina. This territory included present-day Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia. The establishment of French Indochina was part of France's colonial expansion in Asia during the 19th century.
French Republic: This refers to the government system of France itself, not a territory that France had dominion over. The French Republic is the official name of the country of France, not a colonial territory.
