← HistoryWhich outcome faced Viking longships navigating fjords dependent on rope bridges as their sole passage method?
A)Increased storm induced structural instability
B)Expedited troop movement inland expansion
C)Reliable access limited conquest ability✓
D)Reduced exposure to open ocean threats
💡 Explanation
Limited access constrains Viking expansion because the **bottleneck effect** restricts troop flow and resource transport across geographically limiting fjords; therefore effective inland conquest was reduced, rather than weather resistance gained, as reliance on limited rope bridges became their vulnerability.
