Question

How is an oligarchy similar to a monarchy? Both grant political rights to men only. Both give military leaders most of the power. both recognize that citizens have certain rights. both limit the number of people that exercise power.

Answer 1

The correct answer is D. Both limit the number of people that exercise.

Explanation:

In oligarchy and monarchy, the number of people that hold power is limited. Indeed, in monarchy, the power is mainly exerted by the king/queen or monarch. Moreover, this power is passed to the heir, who is usually the son/daughter of the monarch.

Similarly, in an oligarchy, citizens do not hold power, but this is exerted by a small group of people, who are part of a dominant social class and exert power according to their interests. This means in monarchy power is exercised by one individual, while in aristocracy the power is exercised by a few privileged people. According to this, one difference is that "both limit the number of people that exercise".
