Post-Cold War Events Chronological Order

To arrange the events chronologically, we need to determine the year each event occurred:

  • (i) Civil war in former Yugoslavia: Began in 1991.
  • (iv) Rwandan genocide: Occurred in 1994.
  • (iii) US led invasion of Afghanistan: Started in 2001.
  • (ii) Russia’s invasion on Georgia: Occurred in 2008.

Determining Chronological Sequence

Arranging these events based on their start dates in ascending order gives us:

  1. (i) Civil war in former Yugoslavia (1991)
  2. (iv) Rwandan genocide (1994)
  3. (iii) US led invasion of Afghanistan (2001)
  4. (ii) Russia’s invasion on Georgia (2008)

Therefore, the correct chronological order is (i), (iv), (iii), (ii).
