History

During Byzantine-Arab conflicts, which outcome followed a Byzantine embassy presenting deliberately flawed gold coinage?

A)Breaks led to immediate war
B)Strengthened trade and trust
C)Induced economic hyperinflation
D)Increased treaty negotiation leverages

💡 Explanation

Diplomatic fraud, such as presenting shoddy coinage, triggered declarations of war because the Byzantines had violated established treaty agreements. The flawed coinage signaled bad faith, therefore the Arabs frequently opted for military enforcement, rather than continued negotiations.
