Answer 1

Chiefdoms

Step-by-step explanation:

The text shown in the question makes it clear that Micronesia's traditional political system of matrilineal clans is headed by chiefs scattered across many islands. In this way we can understand that every island that is a few miles away from each other has a chief who responds to these unified political systems. Thus, we can conclude that despite the distance, micronesians are all members of different chiefdoms.

Chiefdoms is a form of political organization, where a hierarchical system, based on kinship, is established in societies where the same family assumes the role of chief. These families are the highest social class in this society, featuring an aristocracy where the title of leader is inherited and not achieved.
