The emperor ruled the kingdom with supreme power and authority.Answer & explanation
Answer: A) Sovereignty
Meaning: sovereignty = supreme power and authority; the right of a ruler or a state to govern with no higher power above it *(संप्रभुता, सर्वोच्च सत्ता)*.
The phrase to be replaced is *"ruled the kingdom with* supreme power and authority*"* — that is the textbook definition of sovereignty, word for word.
Why the others are wrong.
• solidarity = unity of feeling and action within a group *(एकजुटता)* — it describes fellow members, not a ruler's power.
• conformity = behaving in line with accepted rules or standards *(अनुरूपता, अनुपालन)* — obeying authority is the reverse of holding it.
• adversity = a state of hardship or misfortune *(विपत्ति, संकट)* — nothing to do with rule at all.
