Why does the United States require citizenship applicants to speak English and have knowledge of American government?

Answer:

To preserve cultural homogeneity.

Explanation:

At its roots, a nation is a group of people who identify under similar characteristics and operate under a central government. There is more to it than that, but that's a good foundation. To ensure that all people share these characteristics, citizen tests make potential immigrants learn key characteristics of the nation they intend to inhabit. In a micro scale, think of the government as someone's home. One would only invite someone else in if they were confident the person coming in knew how to behave in a home. A citizenship test is the way of ensuring that.

Why English? English is not an official language, but it is spoken by the majority and so knowing English will help one integrate within society.

Why American Government knowledge? Some of it, truthfully, is very complex. It is not a perfect system and some of this knowledge is designed to keep people out. On the flip side, some of it comes down to wanting people to know how the law works in the U.S.A.

Absolute monarchy is most similar to which other system of government
GalinKa [24]

Answer

The correct answer is option C.

Absolute monarchy is most similar to the Dictatorship form of the government.

Explanation

Absolute monarchy is referred to the monarchial form of government in which the monarch exercises the supreme powers to head and govern the state in the manner in which one wants.  A dictator in a much similar manner like the monarch exercise powers and authorities to control the state in an unfettered manner which is not challenged by the law and the Constitution of the country.

Further Explanation

The authority of both monarch and dictator cannot be challenged by the law and the constitution of the country. Thus the similarity between the monarchic and dictatorial form of government lies on the fact that an individual exercises an absolute control of the country and they are unaccountable for their rule and the policies.  

The difference however lies on the fact that in the monarchy form of government the powers are transferred and inherited mainly among the members of the country. On the other hand a dictator assumes the control and rule of the people by power and force and it is further maintained by terror, suppression or intimidation to keep them unchallenged.  

Further all the remaining options vest some amount of control and powers in the hands of the people of the country which does not seems to happen in the rule of an absolute monarchy or a dictator.
