    Answer: A) "Royalty can lead to tyranny."

    Explanation: Given that almost all governments in Europe are as democratic as American government, it is difficult for any of these governments to agree with Option B. All of these governments are elected democratically, thus by democratic elections.

    Oligarchy or option C is when a minority of the rich government, and such governments are concerned with the interests of the rich minority and do not care about the democratic rights of all people or poor people, and this is not the case with the aforementioned governments.

    Option D on aristocracy is also contrary to the ideas of democracy. Although not the same case as the oligarchy, the assumption is that a smaller circle of aristocrats rules the state and cares for the people, yet it is contrary to the idea of majority rule, that is, through democratic order and elections, an elected government representing the interests of the majority.

    What all the aforementioned governments would agree with is Option A, because the idea of a democracy that originated in ancient Greece is an opponent to Royalty, which as a one-man rule inevitably leads to tyranny. These ideas were the guiding principles of the Enlightenment on which the US was founded, as a resistance to the British Crown, and to the king, that is, tyranny, and the democratically elected government is today the model of government in America as in most European countries.
