Which of the following was an advantage of the Triple Entente?
The Triple Entente had a strong, central location.
They shared common borders.
They eventually acquired Austria-Hungary as part of the entente.
They controlled the seas.

Respuesta :

The main advantage of the Triple Entente was that its members controlled the seas in Europe.

The Triple Entente was a pact signed in 1907, conformed by France, Russia and Great Britain, to which Italy was added in 1915.

The three signatory countries of the initial pact had strategic geographical positions that allowed them a fast control of the European seas: France controlled the Mediterranean, Great Britain the North Sea and Russia the Barents Sea (Italy with its income reaffirmed control over the Mediterranean, and blocked the exit of the Austro-Hungarian ships by the Adriatic). In this way, the main marine routes were in the hands of the Triple Entente, which was a decisive factor for its victory in the First World War.

Answer:
They controlled the seas together.

Explanation:
The Triple Entente was composed by an alliance between The United Kingdom of Britain and Ireland, The Russian Empire and The French Third Republic. These three entities did not share the same seas or boarders and did not have a centralized location as opposed to their enemy, The Triple Alliance, integrated by The German Empire, The Austria-Hungary Empire and Italy, countries who actually did share boarders. The Russian Empire collided with the Baltic Sea to the northwest and the Black Sea to the south; The French Third Republic collided with Mediterranean Sea to the south and the Atlantic Ocean to the north; The United Kingdom Collided with the Atlantic Ocean to the west and the North Sea to the east.  

What actually was an advantage of the Triple Entente over the Triple Alliance was the fact that, whilst surrounding their enemies, they were able to control all those seas and narrow straits together freely.
