Explanation:

Question 18

Genghis Khan allowed religious freedom, promoted competent allies over relatives, and organized warriors regardless of tribe/kin. He didn't require everyone to become Muslim.

After Genghis Khan's death, China (Yuan Dynasty) was ruled by Kublai Khan. The Ilkhanate was in Persia, the Golden Horde in Russia, and Oscar De La Hoya is a boxer (not related).

The Mongols codified and protected the Silk Road to expand trade, boosting commerce. They didn't destroy it (a is wrong) or ignore it (c is wrong).

Answer:

a. required everyone to become Muslim
