Option (d).

Explanation:

• Autocracy is the constitution of all the power in the hands of a Particular individual. This power is absolute since an autocracy leaves no scope for a competitor.
• In an autocratic government, the individual ruling introduced reforms such that the competition is at a minimum and the potential competitors are also dulled down so that the system remains autocratic.
• It’s a habit of the autocracies to seem legitimate by taking from the constitutions of the non-autocracies.
