Hey, you didn't put the map here but as an economist I would say the right answer is the first.

A command economy is an economy where production is planned centrally. In this way, products are produced as needed, without excess or scarcity. This model is idealized for communist countries, such as North Korea. That is, it is a state-controlled production model.

Already in a market economy, firms produce according to their estimates of profit and in constant competition by prices. In this case, the role of the state is minimal, acting only to maintain the proper environment for the transactions.

In this context, in the view of opponents of the free market, there would be a clash between commanded and free-market economies.
