D Correct answer
Explanation

The original sentence bears the errors of article and preposition. Repetition of article implies two different things but in the sentence 'important' and 'interesting' both are used for single subject '15 years'. So use of article 'the' before important 15 years is incorrect. Also preposition 'among' is incorrect because the period is 'between' two limits: 1588 and 1603. This option corrects all the errors.
