Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option:

• The first option about copying ideas and competing does not relate to developing trade between Europe and Asia.
• The second option about fighting wars and not getting along would hinder trade, not help develop it.
• The third option states that they built upon the Persian trade network and bridged travel and trade from China to the West (Europe), which aligns with how Persians and Greeks helped develop trade between the two continents.

Answer:

The correct option is: They built upon the Persian trade network, and were able to bridge travel and trade from China to the West (Europe).
