  1. Egypt
  2. Lebanon
  3. Syria
  4. Tunisia

Explanation

Option (d) is correct
  • The Arab Spring was a series of pro-democracy uprisings that began in late 2010 and spread across the Arab world. It started in Tunisia following the self-immolation of Mohamed Bouazizi, a street vendor, on December 17, 2010. This act of protest against government corruption and economic hardship ignited widespread demonstrations, eventually leading to the ousting of President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali in January 2011. The Tunisian revolution inspired similar movements in countries like Egypt, Libya, Syria, and Yemen, making Tunisia the cradle of the Arab Spring.
