Answer:

B. Growth of the Byzantine Empire.

Step-by-step explanation:

Trade is very important in attaining not only raw materials, products, and food for oneself, but also in alliances, politics, and foreign policies. Constantinople was a key trade city that linked Asia and Europe together, as well as serving as the capitol of the Byzantine Empire. Because of the traffic as well as the ability to provide security and as a growing market, Byzantine was able to become rich and grow steadily.
