The correct option is D Would have abolished
Since this an example of a third conditional sentence, which is used to explain that present circumstances would be different if something different had happened in the past, we use the past perfect (i.e., had + past participle) in the if-clause and the modal auxiliary (would, could, should, etc.) + have + past participle in the main clause. According to this rule, option D is the correct answer.Options A, B and C are incorrect answers because they do not adhere to the above-stated rule.
