Solution

The correct option is A Democracy
Democracy is a system in which power ultimately comes from the people. It is of two types- direct and representative. An example of direct democracy is referendum where people directly vote on the issue. In representative democracy, people vote for their representatives and are governed through them. Therefore, in a democracy, people are considered sovereign.
