e. an attempt to secure greater protection against british invasion

The correct answer is D. The reason for the Barbary War was an attempt to increase protection money from American ships by Tripoli.

Explanation:

The First Barbary War was a naval war between the United States and the states of North Africa known as the Barbary States. These were the independent Sultanate of Morocco, and the three Regencies of Algeria, Tunisia and Tripoli, which were quasi-independent entities nominally belonging to the Ottoman Empire.

The main motivation of the war by the United States was to put an end to Barbary piracy without having to pay the taxes that the Barbary States demanded to guarantee immunity against pirate attacks.

This war would end with the taking of Derna by US forces, which would trigger the start of negotiations for the release of hostages and the end of the war.
