How is 'tyranny' defined?

Just and fair governance
Cruel and oppressive government or rule
Democratic governance
Monarchical rule

The correct answer is: Cruel and oppressive government or rule

Tyranny is defined as cruel and oppressive government or rule. Option A, just and fair governance, is incorrect because tyranny specifically refers to oppressive and unjust actions. Option C, democratic governance, is also incorrect because tyranny is the opposite of democracy. Option D, monarchical rule, may seem similar to tyranny but does not necessarily involve cruelty or oppression.
