Abbasid reliance on persian bureaucrats and the introduction of confucianism to japanese political institutions both illustrate which of the following processes? a. the integration of conquered peoples into existing social and political structures
b. the synthesis of foreign political traditions in the formation of new states
c. the influence of complex semi-religious philosophies

b. The synthesis of foreign political traditions in the formation of new states

Explanation:

During the Abbasid period, old Arab aristocracy was replaced by Persian bureaucracy, especially the Barmakid family, which was influential Iranian family in the governance of the territories. The introduction of Confucianism to Japanese political institutions was a part of infusing foreign political traditions in the formation of new states. The Abbasid rulers were intelligent to respect the local cultures and traditions in the governance of the new states. Both these elements, the Persian bureaucracy and Confucianism, help control the new states.
