The correct option is **C. Swahili Coast**.
During the 1400s, the Swahili Coast, which consists of city-states along the eastern coast of Africa, engaged in trade with India. They were known for their exports of gold, ivory, and other goods in exchange for Indian textiles, spices, and other products.
Britain and the United States did not have trade relations with India during this period, as British colonial interests in India developed later in the 17th century, and the United States did not yet exist as a nation in the 1400s. The Axum Empire, while historically significant, was in decline by the 15th century and less involved in trade with India compared to the Swahili Coast.
