Who believed that war preserved the ethical health of nations ?
Answer: B
It was Hegel who held that war preserves the ethical health of nations.
In the Philosophy of Right (para 324), Hegel argues that war preserves the ethical health of peoples, as the movement of the winds keeps the sea from the stagnation a lasting calm would produce. War reminds citizens of the finitude of particular interests and binds them to the state.
Mackinder was a geographer, Hobbes saw war as the natural condition to be escaped through the sovereign, and Marx saw wars as products of class society, not as morally healthy.
