Question 15 • FL-2109010-M/J World History A - Teacher Directed Resource

How did political structures evolve as agricultural societies developed?

Answer
A
Villagers had no strong leaders because they moved around so often.
B
Villagers elected leaders who made rules only about natural resources.
C
Villagers followed leaders who helped organize trade and establish borders.
D
Villagers continued following traditional clan leaders who made all the decisions.

Explanation

As farming communities became settled and grew, they needed ways to coordinate trade, manage shared resources, and define the land they controlled. Leaders helped organize these tasks and establish borders, so choice C is correct; frequent movement did not prevent leadership from developing.
