Read this passage about the Ottoman Empire's response to the Industrial Revolution:
The spread of industry in Europe is hardly a world-
changing event. The Ottoman Empire has no need for
shoddy goods built by unskilled peasants in filthy
factories. Our artisans are among the finest in the world
and have always crafted their goods by hand. The quality
of our manufactures will keep them in high demand and
allow our economy to grow much faster than that of the
industrialized European states.
Which statement most accurately describes the bias found in the passage?
A. The author thinks the Ottoman Empire should seize control over
European states
