← HistoryWhich outcome commonly arises when the *logothesia tou dromou*'s intelligence on neighboring policies degrades?
A)Spiked silk trade volume
B)Misdirected military expeditions✓
C)Increased mosaic craftsmanship
D)Improved Greek fire effectiveness

Misdirected expeditions result because the *logothesia tou dromou* (Byzantine foreign ministry) uses **information asymmetry** to advise the emperor; therefore, incorrect intelligence leads to strategic errors, rather than trade increases, higher mosaic output, or more potent weaponry.
