    The correct answer is D) moral rulers were granted the right to rule which led to political dynasties.

    Explanation

    The Mandate of Heaven is a concept of traditional Chinese philosophy concerning the legitimacy of Chinese rulers. Its origin dates back to the Zhou dynasty, although then all other Chinese dynasties would use it to justify its rule. The concept was used throughout the history of China.

    The mandate of heaven justifies the legitimacy of the ruler by stating that it is heaven who has chosen him as ruler. However, to maintain the mandate of heaven, the ruler must be fair to the people and keep in harmony with the universe. So, the correct answer is D) moral rulers were granted the right to rule which led to political dynasties.
