Question 9 • World History

Which best states why the Mughal Empire was considered a good example of multiculturalism?

Answer
A
The Empire conquered several cultures and created a complex government structure to control them.
B
The Empire brought together several cultures and gained loyalty by repelling European colonization.
C
The Empire brought together several cultures and gained loyalty by giving people many freedoms.
D
The Empire conquered several cultures and created new religions to help them adjust to Islam.

Explanation

The Mughal Empire ruled over people with different religions and cultural traditions. It gained support by allowing substantial religious and cultural freedoms, especially under Akbar, who promoted tolerance and included Hindus in government. This makes “brought together several cultures and gained loyalty by giving people many freedoms” the best choice; simply conquering people or building a complex government does not explain multiculturalism as well.
