C) Elected representatives must meet the people's needs.

Explanation:

In a democracy, in a system of government in which the people exercise the authority of the government through elected officials. The common people are given a say in political power, by electing people to represent them in the government. The only way to keep your seat in political power is to meet the people's wants and needs, so that they may vote you in when your position is up for reelection.

Monarchies and dictatorships rely heavily on their military to maintain power, and generally disregard the wishes of their people. In a hereditary monarchy, authority is passed on through a single family for many generations, similar to that of the Zhou Dynasty (1047 B.C. - 256 B.C.) and the Han Dynasty (206 B.C. - 220 A.D.)
