What was social darwinism the change from nation to empire through imperialism the belief that social values should be shared with other nations the idea that nations evolve and adapt to new circumstances the process of natural superiority in the struggle for survival

The correct answer is the process of natural superiority in the struggle for survival

The idea behind social Darwinism is that societies evolve and adapt when facing problems in a similar way that animals evolved in the theory of evolution. If a society cannot adapt to the problems then they fall and those capable of adapting themselves carry on existing. It is survival of the fittest but in a societal way.
