Oligarchy is the political system that is run by a group of noble families or wealthy members of a society. The term Oligarchy was first used by the great Aristotle for describing the powers that were held by a very small and highly privileged group. These people often misused their powers and treated the people under their rule very poorly and also used them to satisfy their selfish needs. It has been commonly seen that the rulers that believed in Oligarchy actually selected people on herediterary basis and not based on merit.

Brahmins.

Why?

The main purpose of the challenger expedition was to find new fishing areas for england.
sashaice [31]
This is false. They wanted to conduct a scientific investigation of great depths and find out more of what lies in the oceans. They traveled while probing depths to see what lies beneath and discovered thousands of new species that were undocumented before because there was no technology to leave shallow water.
