D. allow for diversity of opinions

Keegan Stevens · Answer 2

The allowance for a diversity of opinions is what Aristotle believed that the citizens of a successful state must have.

The diversity of opinions leads to a lot of possible outcomes, which may prove useful since people have a lot of options to choose from in order for their state to succeed. This is somewhat like in the present era where people have a lot of options on who to vote for as the President of their state.
