C) by creating an unequal distribution of power between groups

When a group is unjustly given power over another group it is likely that prejudices will escalate. The stronger group will have resources to oppress or destroy the lesser group because of the connection they have with the corrupt government. These inequalities can fuel a genocide of the lesser group by the dominate group.
