Explanation:

To determine Genghis Khan's greatest achievement, we analyze each option:

• The first option about Muslim rulers and trade routes is incorrect (Genghis Khan's empire was Mongol, not focused on Muslim control of trade).
• The second option about Buddhism expansion is incorrect (Genghis Khan's empire had religious tolerance but not a focus on spreading Buddhism to Europe).
• The third option: Genghis Khan unified the nomadic tribes of Northeast Asia (Mongol tribes) and built the Mongol Empire, which is a key achievement.
• The fourth option about Japanese samurai warrior culture is incorrect (Genghis Khan was Mongol, unrelated to Japanese samurai culture).

Answer:

C. Unifying the nomadic tribes of northeast Asia to eventually form an vast empire
