Correct Answer: An appeasements policies


Solution : The error lies in the third option.

Explanation:
The term " appeasements " is incorrect because "appeasement" is a word that doesn't require a plural form when used in this context to modify "policies". The correct form is "appeasement policy," as "appeasement" describes the type of policies being discussed.

Therefore, the correct sentence would be, "The appeasement policies were all but a sham to misdirect the local groups".
