Thank you my final answer is B.

The correct answer is B. giving pagans a choice of conversion or death. Charlemagne, also known as Charles the Great, led a military campaign known as the Saxon Wars in the late 8th and early 9th centuries. As part of his efforts to consolidate his empire and spread Christianity, he forcibly converted the Saxons to Christianity. When Charlemagne's forces defeated the Saxons, they were given the choice to convert to Christianity or face death. This policy aimed to eliminate paganism and establish Christianity as the dominant religion among the Saxons. Therefore, the correct answer to the question is B, and not D.
