The best answer to the question: Which statement is TRUE regarding population distribution in BOTH Germany and Italy?, would be, A: In both countries, the majority of the population lives in urban areas.

Explanation:

Since the initiation of urbanization, in almost all countries in the world, people decided that it was better for them to settle inside the cities and urban areas, than in the countryside. The reason for it was mainly due to the fact that job opportunities were mostly in the cities and not outside of them. Germany and Italy were not an exception. As industrialization took place, people moved towards urban centers, and most especially to the big cities like Rome, Venice, Florence, or Berlin, to name a few examples. Today, that trend has not changed much. Life in the countryside is taken more as a luxury, and living inside cities became both a necessity (due to job closeness) and a commodity (due to the closeness to services and goods).
