Solution

The correct option is B Monarchy
Monarchy is the system of hereditary rule by a king or a queen. Such a king or a queen is called a monarch.

Suppose the monarch is a king. When the king dies, his son or someone in his family will become the next ruler. In a monarchy, only a king or a queen has the power to run the government. The monarch is not accountable to the people.
