C. Democratic governments must have a limited powers

Explanation:

A limited government is one whose functions and powers exercised through the State are limited or restricted by law, generally by means of a constitution. These powers can never interfere with the liberties of each individual. Thus, this government would be limited to the functions of justice, security, defense, and in some cases public works.

The term is of more or less recent use and has been applied to the political theories of the Enlightenment, which gave rise to the liberal constitutionalism of the 19th century. These include, as fundamental axes, the separation of powers and submission of the State to a constitution.
