B)to prevent the rich from taking to much power
C) To provide social control and conformity acording to ones birth
D) to draft a military capable of defending india from mongol invasion
The correct answer is "C".
The caste system in India is a class structure which determines the position of an individual in the social pyramid according to the household he was born in. It originated during the Sangam period, around 300 BCE. It creates the ideology that if one is born poor, he will remain poor for the rest of his life. On the other hand, if one is born rich, he will probably thrive in life. This system completely nullifies social class escalation, as it labels it as a nearly impossible option that a poor person could escape from his fate.

or
D) Consumers began buying fewer domestically- made goods ???
The second alternative is correct (B).
Countries usually adopt customs tariffs to protect domestic producers from foreign competition. However, in the long term, this policy has proved to be inefficient, because by inhibiting competition, this policy encourages production models that are inefficient and deprives consumers of access to goods and services at a lower cost.
Consequently, nations lose the market they could achieve if there were free trade. Thus, international trade between countries tends to decline.

THE EDITORIAL PAGE
In the early days of journalism in the United States, the political opinion of the paper wasn't just on the editorial pages. Early publications had a clear slant and purpose. For instance, The New York Post was started in 1801 by Alexander Hamilton, with the intention of using the paper to promote the views of the Federalist Party. Then Benjamin Day introduced the idea of the penny newspaper, starting The Sun as a New York daily paper in 1833, for the price of just a penny. (That would equate to about 25 cents in today's economy.) It made the news accessible and affordable to everyone, and Day's paper reported lots of news in straightforward fashion. It was the first paper to report on events involving ordinary persons -- recording crimes, deaths, suicides, etc.
More and more, newspapers shifted to a broader, less partisan approach as a way of expanding their readership (and thus selling more papers). The editorial page of each newspaper thus developed as the space within the paper where the editorial staff's political viewpoint could be seen.
