You're welcome, Skye.

You are correct! The most common method that empire builders used to unite vast territories was indeed military conquest (option D). This involved the use of military force to conquer and subjugate other regions or civilizations. By employing armies and military tactics, empire builders sought to expand their territories, claim resources, and assert political control over various lands. Military conquest allowed them to establish their authority and extend their dominance over a vast area, which ultimately led to the formation of empires.
