Answer: B. Power is shared by the government and the people.

Step-by-step explanation:

The government and the people in a democracy are connected, considering that the people elect the government representatives, that is, the people who will primarily represent their interests. In a democracy, the people can participate in government in this way and in other ways, such as the formation of non-governmental associations that will, for example, monitor the work of government, the organization of plenums, conferences and the like. Other examples are incorrect because there is no rule of fear in a democracy; this is true of totalitarian regimes. Religion is separated from the state, government and politics. Religious institutions have nothing to do with Waltz. After all, anyone living in a country does not have to be a citizen as a rule, given that there are many illegal stays in almost all countries.
