Loyalty to which governing model was displaced by ideas advanced in the declaration of independence and the u. s constitution?
a) the dictatorship, or rule by one person with total power
b) the oligarchy, or control by a small number of people
c) the monarchy, or rule by divine right of a king
d) the democracy, or government by the people

The correct answer is C.

The Declaration of Independence was signed in 1776, after the American Revolution, and stated that the Thriteen American Colonies were no longer under British rule, and would now be sovereign states.

The U.S Constitution was adopted in the same year, establishing a federal government made up of three branches: the the legislative, the executive,  and the judicial.

These two displaced the monarchic system that was instated in America at that time in favour of a federal government in which citizens did not have to answer to a king, but to a representative chosen by the mayority.
