Answer 1

Hint: Aristocracy is a government of collected people who are the most qualified to rule as they are thought to be exceptional in some way or are made up of people with royal blood. Britain’s Royal family is an example of an aristocracy.

Complete answer:
The word aristocrat comes from the Greek word aristokratia, which means ‘rule of the best’. Aristocracy is defined as a ruling class. The landed aristocracy was the dominant class on the continent socially and also politically. They were united by a common way of life that cut across the regional divisions. They owned townhouses and states in the countryside. For the purpose of diplomacy in high society, they spoke French.

The families of the aristocratic class were often connected by ties of marriage. The alternatives of the aristocracy are oligarchy or mediocrity which is a form of power in which power effectively rests with a small number of people. The people differ in terms of their basic abilities and aptitudes is the basic view of aristocracy. The Aristocracy would be the rule of the board in business.

 A group of people chosen based on their experience, knowledge, and acumen to run a firm, not necessarily their personal income. Business is based solely on money in the case of oligarchy, who makes the most money will be chosen to rule a firm, and to a great extent, society at large.

Thus, the answer is option ‘C’ i.e,French.

Note: The aristocratic class was the dominant class of Europe, though they were in a numerically small group. One benefit to aristocracy was that the state and the society will be ruled by the best and the brightest.
