Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is A) Christianity.

In the late 1400s, slaves of Christianity were forced to convert to Islam and serve in an infantry called the Janissaries. This practice was enforced by the Ottoman-controlled Empire in Europe as a form of taxation on the Christian territories. The slaves were taken at a young age, converted to Islam, and given training to create an elite military force loyal to the sultan.
