Solution

The correct option is C Silk Route
The Silk Route primarily refers to the land routes connecting East Asia and Southeast Asia with Europe, South Asia, Persia, the Arabian Peninsula, East Africa and Southern Europe. The Silk Road derives its name from the lucrative trade in silk carried out along its length, beginning at the time of the Han Dynasty in China (207 BCE–220 CE).
