The correct answer is - B. Yugoslavian republics declared independence after Serbia attempted to dominate minority groups.

In 1989 the end of Yugoslavia as a confederate country was on the horizon after the Serbian nationalist government was trying to impose forcefully its dominion over the other ethnicities in the country that were lesser in number than the Serbs. This was not taken very fondly by the Croatians, Bosnians, Macedonians, and Slovenians, so all of them on one way or another were setting the terrein that they get out of Yugoslavia and declare independence. In the end this resulted in military conflict with devastating results in the region.
