The ideal answer should include:

2. Explain three causes of Brexit. For example, students might mention increasing unemployment (as a result of the 2008-2009 recession and European debt crisis), anti-EU sentiments in Great Britain, nationalism, and populism in Europe.
3. Discuss why Brexit negotiations have been complicated.
