Which outcome results from Constantinople's strict silk thread 'sericulture' controls?

A)Weaker trade relationships with the West
B)Technological advances in fiber weaving
C)Monopolized economy and high silk prices
D)Improved silk dyeing techniques emerges

💡 Explanation

Silk thread sericulture allowed for economic leverage; implementation of price controls meant Constantinople could fix prices globally. Strict government oversight limited supply leading to price inflation; rather than widespread accessibility therefore prices increased dramatically because of the instituted economic mechanism.
