Answer 1

The correct grouping that identifies the three major Islamic empires is:

A: Mughal; B: Safavid; C: Ottoman

This grouping correctly represents the geographical locations of these empires:

• A (Mughal) near India
• B (Safavid) near Persia (modern-day Iran)
• C (Ottoman) near Egypt (and extending into parts of Europe and the Middle East)

So the best response is the first one:

A: Mughal; B: Safavid; C: Ottoman.
