Answer 1

A similarity between the governments of Iran and Saudi Arabia is that A. neither allows political parties.

While Iran has a unique political system featuring a theocratic element with its own version of democratic processes (like elections), it ultimately restricts political parties and mandates that candidates align with the principles of the Islamic Republic. Saudi Arabia, being an absolute monarchy, does not permit political parties, as the king holds significant power and authority without a political party system.
