Answer 1

The correct answer to this is d. members of particular religious groups.

Answer 2

d. members of particular religious groups.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lebanon is a parliamentary democracy governed by a confessional framework, in which the main positions are distributed proportionally among the different religious communities of the country. The Lebanese Constitution guarantees the right to change government by vote, according to the constitution, every four years. The last elections were in 2009, with the so-called Alliance of March 14 being the winner.

The President is elected by Parliament every 6 years, and both elect the Prime Minister after each election.

Since 2016 the President is politician Michel Aoun. The Prime Minister was Saad Hariri since 2016, although he resigned his position on November 4, 2017.
