The correct answer is:

C. Repressive measures were taken against those who lost the war.

Explanation:
The word vindictive means having or showing a strong desire for revenge. This suggests that the victors took harsh or punitive actions against the losers, which aligns with repressive measures.

Option A (Vengeful attacks were incessantly carried out) is too extreme because vindictive does not necessarily imply continuous attacks.

Option B (Friendly measures were taken) is the opposite of what vindictive means.

Option D (Those who won the war became treacherous) is incorrect because treacherous means disloyal or betraying trust, which is different from being vindictive.
