The answer that would best complete the given statement above would be option A. Historical context. The political, economic, or cultural environment that surrounds an event provides the event with its historical context. Context is the "setting" for an event that occurs, and the elements, conditions, and characteristics of this specific time will have an impact on the relevance of the event. Hope this answer helps.
