Solution

The correct option is C People
Abraham Lincoln defines democracy as "the government of the people, by the people, for the people". The term democracy is derived from a Greek language and means " rule by the people". It is clear from the definition of the term democracy that democracy is the rule of the people's representative. In a democratic form of government, the political leaders are elected by the citizens only.
