State/Province/ Overseas Territory) | (Country)
A. British Colombia | 1. USA
B. Bavaria | 2. UK
C. Gibraltar | 3. Canada
D. Rhode Island | 4. Germany
| 5. Denmark

Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: B
Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 (A-3, B-4, C-2, D-1). This matching is based on the political geography of major nations and their administrative divisions.

  • A-3: British Columbia is Canada's westernmost province, located between the Pacific Ocean and the Rocky Mountains.
  • B-4: Bavaria (Bayern) is the largest landlocked state in Germany, known for its distinct culture and its capital, Munich.
  • C-2: Gibraltar is a British Overseas Territory located at the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula. While claimed by Spain, it remains under the jurisdiction of the United Kingdom.
  • D-1: Rhode Island is the smallest state by area in the USA, located in the New England region.

Other options are incorrect because they mismatch these well-established sovereign jurisdictions (e.g., placing Rhode Island in Canada or Bavaria in the UK). Option 2 correctly identifies the sovereign relationship for each territory listed.
