Oligarchy is the political system that is run by a group of noble families or wealthy members of a society. The term Oligarchy was first used by the great Aristotle for describing the powers that were held by a very small and highly privileged group. These people often misused their powers and treated the people under their rule very poorly and also used them to satisfy their selfish needs. It has been commonly seen that the rulers that believed in Oligarchy actually selected people on herediterary basis and not based on merit.

The conservatism of Taft was the main reason for Roosevelt to split and run for the presidency again.
<u>
Explanation:</u>
Theodore Roosevelt and William Howard Taft were close friends but, the thing that separated them from each other was, their thinking. When Roosevelt became the President of the US, he brought out many progressive policies, and most of them passed in Congress.
On the other hand, William Taft had exact opposite thinking, he was a man with conservative thinking and limited himself to this particular approach. He became the US president but, his conservative ideas were against Roosevelt's thinking, and due to this, Roosevelt chose to split and form the Progressive Party and run for the presidency.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached or further references or context, we can say the following.
Regarding the French debt, the costs that seemed justified were the French intervention in the Seven Years War, because France had a great rivalry against England, and France had to send troops to the North American territory and other parts of the European continent.
Another justified cost was the support the government of France offered the Continental Army when it was fighting against the British troops during the Revolutionary War of Independence. At that time, the United Kingdom was the natural enemy of France.
Now, the costs that seemed unjustified were the following. First the construction of luxurious buildings such as the Versailles Palace, in the outskirts of Paris. This was an excessive massive luxurious building in a time where most of the French people were very poor.
The other unjustified cost was the extravagant parties and luxurious lifestyle of the King of France Louis XIV and his wife Maria Antonieta. Fancy parties, fancy clothes, and fancy food, when the Third State in France was dying of hunger.
We then can say that a class conflict started the revolution.
The French Revolution began in 1789. The Storming of the Bastille started the hostilities in Paris, France. French people were tired of the tyranny of the monarch. The class system had produced social inequality and the tax burden on the thirds state (the commoners, the poor people) angered the French.
