The answer is letter C.

Before the Mongol invasion, Chinese officials were selected through civil service exams, but after the invasion, this system was eliminated. When the Mongols invaded China, they dethroned most of its leaders and emperors and decided to rule the land based on their rules. They also forced their culture to the people of China.
