Correct Answer: Plutocracy


Solution : The correct answer is the fourth option.

It is derived from the Greek words "ploutos," which means wealth, and "kratia," which means rule or power. Therefore, it accurately represents a government that is primarily influenced or controlled by those with significant financial resources.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Theocracy: A theocracy is a form of government where religious leaders or religious laws hold the ultimate authority.

  • Democracy: Democracy is a form of government where the power to make decisions and elect leaders is vested in the hands of the people.

  • Autocracy: Autocracy is a system of government where a single individual, often a dictator or monarch, holds absolute and centralised power.
