Solution
The correct option is A how to run the country
The king's court is a term that describes the king's council and household. The court travelled with the king wherever he went. The king would seek advice from the wise men of his court which would include relatives, barons, lords, and members of the church such as bishops.
The name "court" comes from the fact that most kings held court and made judgments. They would hear certain complaints and issues, especially issues between the most powerful barons and lords. Then they would make decisions with the help of their council. Hence, Option A is correct. The palace was built according to the whim of the king, and the concept of Eutopia state was introduced by Thomas More in 1551, much later than the Middle ages of 500-1000 CE. Hence, these are incorrect.
