Answer:

D) a small group of people

Explanation:

The oligarchy, in political science is a form of government in which political power is in the hands of a few people, usually of the same social class. The political writers of ancient Greece used the term to designate the degenerate and negative form of aristocracy (etymologically, government of the best). Strictly, the oligarchy will arise when the succession of an aristocratic system is perpetuated by blood or mythical transfer, without the ethical and leadership qualities of the best arising on its own merit, this definition very close to that of monarchy and even more to that of nobility.
