Answer:

B. Monarchy

Explanation:

A monarchy is a country that is ruled by a monarch, and monarchy is this system or form of government. A monarch, such as a king or queen, rules a kingdom or empire. In a constitutional monarchy, the monarch's power is limited by a constitution. But in an absolute monarchy, the monarch has unlimited power.

Monarchy is a form of rule in which there is a single head of state, a monarch, with the title of King, Queen or similar titleholder. The head of state usually inherits the title through rules of descendency as a member of a specific royal family and holds his or her office for life.

There are lots of different examples of monarchy in the world today. Constitutional monarchies have a hereditary head of state, but are to all intents and purposes democracies.

Some examples of this are the UK, Netherlands, Spain and Sweden. Monarchs in other countries have more power, for example in Saudi Arabia.

<u>Here are your matches:</u>

John Locke = philosopher

Quartering Act = required colonists to house troops

Permit me to say a bit more about John Locke, the philosopher -- as important background to the American Revolution.

The American founding fathers read Locke (as well as other Enlightenment writers).  The American Revolution (1775-1783) was inspired by ideas such as those of Locke.  John Locke (1632-1704) argued for the idea of a "social contract."  According to his view, a government's power to govern comes from the consent of the people themselves -- those who are to be governed.  This was a change from the previous ideas of "divine right monarchy" -- that a king ruled because God appointed him to be the ruler.  Locke repudiated the views of divine right monarchy in his<em> First Treatise on Civil Government.</em>  In his <em>Second Treatise on Civil Government, </em>Locke argued for the rights of the people to create their own governments according to their own desires and for the sake of protecting their own life, liberty, and property.
