Question

Explain how a democracy, monarchy, or dictatorship may also be a theocracy. Be sure to cite at least one modern-day government as an example.

Answer 1

Answer: In a democracy, the power of those in authority is limited because the people retain the supreme power. In a dictatorship, a ruler or small group with absolute power over the people holds power, often through force. Monarchy is a government in which authority over the people is retained through a trade of allegiance.
