Answer/Explanation
The author, Mark Twain, writes about himself as if he is another character in the story.
In the beginning, it seems as if Huck is talking instead of Mark Twain, because Huck is talking about Twain and the book Tom Sawyer and says that Twain lied and that he will tell a story that is more truthful for understanding characters who are in the book.
So what is an oligarchy?
an oligarchy is a form of government where the rich do the thinking, the government control - but it isn’t just solely the rich so think of royalty, militia, etc. those fit the theme of someone who is “important”
Now the American government is a democracy - meaning the people vote for whom is in office, because it’s representative of them (the people) however the people we see as senates, presidents, and other forms of being a politician; they are fairly wealthy either from their backgrounds (family wealth) or because they’re a politician (it takes a lot of money to be one)
I think it’s an oligarchy but with extra steps. Like in England you have a monarchy - direct oligarchy while America is an oligarchy with extra steps. So yes and no - by definition of governments no, but by how it actually runs? Yes.
I hope this helps - I know it said ASAP so I might be too late :(
