The correct answer is D. Alexandria, Egypt.

Explanation

The Library of Alexandria was the largest in the world during the third century BC close to the Hellenistic period in Greek history. Its name is due to its location in the Egyptian city of Alexandria. The initial idea of converting this city into a city of global knowledge, however, this idea was carried out by Ptolemy I who founded the library. At its peak, it came to have around nine hundred thousand documents including, works and manuscripts on areas such as mathematics, science, philosophy, religion, arts, sciences, architecture, astronomy, geography, among others. It is famous due to the fire of which it was the victim and where an important part of the ancient knowledge was lost. So, the correct answer is Aleandría, Egypt.
