Explanation:

- Option 1: American War of Independence

- The American War of Independence in 1776 focused on liberation from colonial rule and laid the groundwork for civil rights within America, rather than a global human rights movement.

- Option 2: Second World War

- After the devastation of World War II, the world recognized the need for a universal framework to protect human rights, leading to the formation of bodies like the United Nations in 1945 and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948.

- Option 3: Atlantic Charter, 1941

- The Atlantic Charter set out broad goals for post-war peace and international cooperation. While it influenced human rights discussions, the momentum truly kicked after WWII.

- Option 4: The European Convention on Human Rights, 1950

- This was a significant step in European human rights protection but occurred after the initial momentum created post-WWII.
