Answer:

C) a city, town, or village with its own government

Explanation:

A municipality is generally an administrative division with corporate status and usually owns government and (or) own jurisdiction. The term municipality is also used to mean the governing institution of a municipality, such as a prefecture.

A municipality is an administrative subdivision of general use, unlike a district, which has special purposes. The term is derived from the French municipalité and the Latin municipium, former Roman designation. It is a territory endowed with legal personality and a certain autonomy, constituted by administrative and political bodies. "Municipality" means the political territorial space, sometimes with a rural and urbanized area, within a State and administered by a city hall.
