According to Alfred T. Mahan what is/are the element of Sea power ?

  • A.Physical configuration
  • B.Geographical position
  • C.Extent of territory
  • D.All of the above

Answer: D

The answer is All of the above.

In The Influence of Sea Power upon History, 1660-1783 (1890), Alfred Thayer Mahan listed six principal conditions affecting a nation's sea power: (1) geographical position, (2) physical conformation (coastline, harbours, resources), (3) extent of territory, (4) number of population, (5) character of the people and (6) character of the government.

Physical configuration, geographical position and extent of territory are all on this list, so no single option is complete on its own and 'All of the above' is correct.
