To determine which country had the lowest death rate during World War I based on the provided chart, we need to compare the given percentage of population that died for each country. Let's list out the death rates for each country from the chart:

- Russia: [tex]\(1.1\%\)[/tex]
- France: [tex]\(1.5\%\)[/tex]
- UK: [tex]\(0.24\%\)[/tex]
- Italy: [tex]\(1.6\%\)[/tex]
- Serbia: [tex]\(5.7\%\)[/tex]
- US: [tex]\(0.1\%\)[/tex]

We aim to find the lowest percentage among these values. Let's compare each one:

- The death rate for Russia is [tex]\(1.1\%\)[/tex].
- The death rate for France is [tex]\(1.5\%\)[/tex].
- The death rate for the UK is [tex]\(0.24\%\)[/tex].
- The death rate for Italy is [tex]\(1.6\%\)[/tex].
- The death rate for Serbia is [tex]\(5.7\%\)[/tex].
- The death rate for the US is [tex]\(0.1\%\)[/tex].

After comparing all the percentages, [tex]\(0.1\%\)[/tex] (for the US) is the smallest number among the listed percentages.

Hence, the country with the lowest death rate during World War I is the US.
