Answer: D. Palestine

Explanation: The mass extermination of Jews during the Second World War spurred the realization of the Jewish long-standing aspiration of returning to Palestine and the formation of the state of Israel after the WWII. The persecutions of the Jews from the Soviet Union began in the early 20th century, and the Holocaust contributed to the fact that Jews throughout the world, wherever they were, began to return to Palestine organized in the Zionist movement whose main goal was the establishment of the state of Israel.
