Answer 1

Answer:

B. A fictional ideal society based on reason and justice

• Utopia (1516) by Sir Thomas More imagines a perfect island society where private property doesn’t exist, education is universal, and laws are fair and simple.

• It critiques the social, political, and economic inequalities of 16th-century Europe, especially in England.

• The title itself—Utopia—means “no place”, suggesting it's an ideal that may not exist but is worth striving toward.
