Answer:

B: A king or queen holds the majority of governmental control.

Step-by-step explanation:

When only one leader, king or queen, holds the majority of governmental control, the country becomes without the participation of the people and their representatives, elected by the vote as happens in democracies. In a system of democratic government there is a belief in freedom and equality between people. This characteristic is not found in monarchy.
