The correct answer is D.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778) was one of the main phisolophers of the Enlightment ideas which spread in Europe and triggered upraisings against absolut monarchies and the old feudal regimes. The most famous of them all was, of course, the French Revolution in 1789.

In his book, <em>The Social Contract, h</em>e appointed the importance of developing governments whose powers were granted from the will of their subjects, from all the citizens under its ruling, through suffrage. These ideas were clearly in opposition with the absolut monarchies that ruled most European countries at those times. Kings had all the power on their hands and had received it from God. This latter idea sharply contrast with the Enlighment phisolophy, opposite to dogmas and superstitions and that was claiming for the devopment of  <em>reason</em> and of the scientific method.

This is why Rosseau would claim for a different type of government in Mordor, without an authoritarian king and that, in turn, citizens should be given a say.

Vesna [10]

The United States currently has approximately 150 embassies located in foreign countries. Embassies facilitate relations between foreign powers and the United States by providing official points of contact between foreign powers and the US. The Ambassador functions more or less like a direct personal representative of the head of government, the president in this case. The Ambassador, by living in the foreign nation, helps the US gain a deeper understanding of the nation's culture and standard procedures, thus facilitating the interaction between the US and said foreign nations such like treaties, negotiations and visits.
