Before he was assassinated by his brother in 1828, King Shaka built a Zulu empire extending over hundreds of thousands of square miles and that contained some two million inhabitants.
(A) extending over hundreds of thousands of square miles and that contained
=> parallelism error ( extending & contained )
(B) extensive over hundreds of thousands of square miles, and it contained
=> Don't see any need to use the noun 'extensive'
(C) that extended over hundreds of thousands of square miles and containing
=> same as A
(D) that extended over hundreds of thousands of square miles and contained
=> right answer
(E) which was extending over thousands of square miles and containing
=> why the sentence in past continuous form when past tense should have done.Pls note it is always better to use the simple tense than to use the perfect or continuous tense.

Please exp the reasoning behind ans D ( OA ). where am i going wrong?

E) - My question as why DO is noth there after than, please explain?
D) - Perhaps Consider + Noun + What else?
D) - No idea---why Such is allowed here at first place, there ain't any example???
C) - it was always among the A, C & E, now all 3 options have regarded as, the right idiom, why C...Paralleleism> Regarded AS X, Not AS Y..
Please explain....

siddharthaduggirala SaysI think the answer is E. The frost forms after the moisture condensed, so this is a action that takes place later. Hence had here is incorrect. A,D are out. option C,B "was" is passive. So E.
..???????...
the confusion lies between option A and option B.. I would have marked option B owing to the fact that I would wanna avoid passive sentence..
wats the OA..??..
