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.

Why did the United States establish the Open Door policy?
olga55 [171]
Many great European powers had been exploiting China's weak economic system to enforce their own trade regulations for years. The United States simply wanted to join the fray, so the Open Door notes were sent to the European powers basically stating, "Hey, you guys can't own all of China, make sure that all countries get to trade equally with them."

Just as a side note, the Open Door policy with China was extremely hypocritical for the United States, as the Monroe Doctrine of 1823 basically stated that none of the European powers could interfere with the Western Hemisphere... While no one was allowed to touch the Americas, the United States was apparently allowed to mess with the rest of the world.
