i'LL GIVE A MEDAL IF IT'S RIGHT... Which type of government can make the fastest decisions? A. Direct democracy B. Representative democracy C. Autocracy D. Oligarchy

OpenStudy (puertoricangirl):

I think is d tho

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

hint: dictatorship

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

or you can think of it as monarchy

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/oligarchy that page states an oligarchy is `a country, business, etc., that is controlled by a small group of people` surely we can go smaller in terms of having a ruler/king/etc

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so my suggestion is to look up each term if you aren't sure

OpenStudy (puertoricangirl):

ok I will take a look brb

OpenStudy (puertoricangirl):

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

http://www.dictionary.com/browse/autocracy have a look at that

OpenStudy (puertoricangirl):

k

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

based on that, what is is an autocracy?

OpenStudy (puertoricangirl):

dude you could it say it's c ...and hold up to answer your question

OpenStudy (puertoricangirl):

government in which one person has uncontrolled or unlimited authority over others; the government or power of an absolute monarch.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes since one person is in charge, they can decide whatever they want as quickly as they want. Usually it's the fastest of all types of government, but speed isn't everything

OpenStudy (puertoricangirl):

so is c right?

OpenStudy (puertoricangirl):

hello?

OpenStudy (puertoricangirl):

@agent0smith am I right?

OpenStudy (plainntall):

Defintely C. There is no discussion, no seeking consensus just one authority making the decision. It is also usually the most unfair, corrupt and wrong.
