PREP2-Q54

[LINK228]

Greatly influenced by the Protestant missionary Samuel Kirkland, the Oneida was the only one of the five-nation Iroquois League who sided with the colonists during the American Revolution.
• A was the only one of the five-nation Iroquois League who sided
• B was alone of the five-nation Iroquois League when they sided
• C alone among the five nations of the Iroquois League sided
• D were the only ones out of the five nations of the Iroquois League in siding
• E only of the five-nation Iroquois League had sided
I understand the "the Oneida"=Plural noun
Eliminate A and B
As for E, "had sided" makes it illogical, influenced......should happen first.
How about C and D?How can I eliminate them?
Thanks for the answer

the easiest way to knock off D is just to compare it to C. note what i wrote here

(i don't use the in-forum search. i just use google, with a site-specific search. for this problem i'd just put the following search into google:
site:manhattanprep.com "the oneida"
it's important NOT to put a space between site: and the site restriction.)
