Can u help me plz its a quiz and i need to pass it

option D is it

Explanation:

if we're given a map of some empire that existed long ago, the map will tell us how much region the empire had at that time. It can't tell use how long it existed or their nature or anything else. Maps of massive empires that existed long ago connect history and geography, like telling the amount of region it conquered in this amount of time.

it can also describe the quality of fighters and their leader, for example if I had two maps of this empire one in 1683 an d the other after some 20-30 years and I see the region conquered then is comparatively less than it was in 1683 so I see the king and his soldiers weren't well trained that their fighting skills got beaten off by some other kingdom

the answer is b! (apex)
