The word 'politics' comes from the Latin politia, meaning 'policy', and politics is generally 
defined as the science or art of government. Politics has played ah increasing part in human 
affairs since men and women first organised themselves into societies, and most of history is an 
account of politics in one form or another. There were brief periods, of relatively free or 
representative government during the Greek and Roman eras. But until the seventeenth century, 
politics was mostly the concern of powerful monarchs or other people in positions of high 
authority, such as church leaders. The rise of political parties during the seventeenth and 
eighteenth centuries introduced the concept of government by consent rather than by force.

A) has always been dominated by monarchs or religious leaders 
B) has had little effect on ordinary people since the beginning of history 
C) is really what a great deal of history is about 
D) has always been a very expensive business 
E) is a much more interesting subject than history
