a: european trading posts were expelled from safavid territory

The correct answer is "C": Devoting or Devshirme was the practice by which the Ottoman Empire recruited children from Christian families to be trained as Janissary soldiers, who were forced to convert to Islam. This practice was motivated by the desire to create a class of elite soldiers loyal only to the sultan, rather than the Turkish Ottoman nobility.
