The correct answer is A) Charles I is executed.
One result of the English Civil War was that Charles I is executed.
The English Civil War started in 1642 and ended in 1651. It was the armed confrontation between the Royalists and Parliamentarians.
The consequences of the war were the trail and execution of Charles I. His son, Charles II, went to exile. And the installation of the Commonwealth of England as the form of government after deposing the King. Later, it became the Protectorate. From now on, the King knew that he had no absolute power and the British Parliament had to approve all the decisions.
The compromise was seen in the Rush-Bagot treaty which was ratified by both sides' parliaments. They decided to demilitarize the zone and only allow two ships from each country to stay in the lakes and those two ships had to be lightly armed instead of for examples being full warships. The demilitarized zone was designed to prevent either side from being too strong in the area.

Answer:
A) The political institution Dickinson wants to maintain is the English monarchy. He provides a series of reasons in favor of the status quo and against the Revolution. For him, this institution has given the colonists freedom and he believes that establishing a Republic will result in "licentious anarchy and popular tyranny".
B) The English monarchy served as a guide for the colonists "directing them ... to the same object, which is self preservation and happiness". This institution, according to Dickinson, maintained union in the colonies and gave the people freedom. The monarchy "only sustains and governs".
C) Representative democracy is a system in which elected officials represent groups of the population in the government. In the passage, he mentions the Parliament and how it represents the "variety of opinions and diversity of interests", which is what a representative democracy should do.
