918). OA - A - what correctly refers to noun increase
B, C - incorrect - wordy
D - incorrect - wrong tense - bringing suggests an ongoing condition and is incompatible with an action that was completed shortly after the second world war.
E - incorrect - violating parallelism - past tense brought is needed to parallel was. Further has brought indicates action that continues up to the present.
Thanks
