Answer 1

I believe the answer is A

Answer 2

The correct answer is A) King who has the power to break any law he wants.

An absolute monarchy is a political system in which one individual has all of the power within a government. This individual can make laws as they see fit. Considering that there is no one within the government to check their power, this monarch has the ability to do whatever they want without consequences. This system often results in individuals abusing their power and living by a different set of rules in comparison to normal citizens.
