(a) democracy
(b) republic
(c) monarchy
(d) totalitarian state

Explanation:

A dictatorship is a form of government where one person or a small group has absolute power. In North Korea, Kim Jong - Un holds significant and near - absolute decision - making power for the country and its citizens, which aligns with the characteristics of a dictatorship. A democracy is a government by the people (through elected representatives or direct participation), a republic is a state where power is held by the people and their elected representatives (with an elected head of state, often a president), and a totalitarian state is a more extreme form of dictatorship where the government controls almost every aspect of public and private life (North Korea is more accurately described as a dictatorship in this context as the key point is the concentration of power in one leader).

Answer:

C. dictatorship
