Answer:

The answer is: letter A, Established prisons to hold criminals and reduced crime.

Explanation:

Thomas Hobbes was an<em> English philosopher</em> who supported "absolute monarchy" as the best form of government for the people. According to him, it is a human instinct to desire more power. Without law, people will kill others in order to achieve their own good. Thus, he stated that life would be "nasty, brutish and short" without a state government. Establishing prisons to hold criminals and reduce crime will allow people to uphold the contract of submitting themselves to the will of the sovereign. People's fear will be the means to maintain order and peace in a civil society.

So for him, in order to guarantee "peace,"<u><em> monarchy</em></u> is the best form of government. It is important that <em>all members in the nation submit themselves absolutely to the sovereign in order to maintain peace. </em>

How did the differences in landownership impact voting power in the early eighteenth century?
IgorLugansk [536]
The majority of landowners were men, so not many women voted. There were more white landowners than black land owners in the colonies, resulting in the fact that African Americans were unable to vote. An influx of new colonists from Spain and France purchased land, as a result, they made a larger voting population than the British colonists.
