Answer:

D. Monotheism

Step-by-step explanation:

Monotheism is the belief in one god and this belief is opposed to polytheism, which is the belief in many gods. Historically, many cultures around the world were polytheistic since they worshiped a myriad of gods. But this idea came to an end with the rise of Judaism, which millennia ago became a monotheistic religion. Later, Christianity and Islam followed the Jewish tradition of worshiping a single god, and the three of them are linked in the Abrahamic tradition. According to Jewish and Christian traditions, the prophet Abraham made a covenant with God by which God promised Abraham that he would have a long offspring, the Hebrew people, and that they shall worship God as the only god. This idea represented the hallmark of the beginning monotheism in the History of religion.
