Incidents such as those described by the author of the letter were used by the British government to do which of the following?

(A) Issue a casus belli to go to war with the Kingdom of Zulu (B) Tax the Zulu kingdom to cover damages attributed to them (C) Sever its responsibility to protect citizens who chose to live in South Africa (D) Liberate the Zulus from British colonialismExplanation: Casus belli, (A), is just a fancy term that means “reason for war.” The British cited conflicts between the colonial settlers and the native Zulu population to demonstrate that the native population was the aggressor. This was important to the British, as a successful war campaign would increase British influence in South Africa.
