Explanation:

1. Kenya and South - Africa are democracies. A dictatorship is the opposite of democratic rule. Federal and confederal systems are about the distribution of power between central and regional governments, not the main description of their overall government type.
2. When citizens elect members of the national legislature to make laws, it is a characteristic of democracy. An oligarchy is rule by a few, absolute monarchy is rule by a single monarch with absolute power, and constitutional monarchy has a monarch with limited power along with a legislature.
3. In South Africa, with the President elected by members of the National Assembly who are elected by citizens, it is a parliamentary democracy. A unitary system is about the structure of the state, direct democracy is when citizens directly make decisions, and a confederal system is a loose association of states.

Answer:

1. B. dictatorships
2. A. democracy
3. D. parliamentary democracy
