D. to overcome corruption



Correct answer choice is:



A. To provide safety



Explanation:



The Government would create and enforce the laws to secure a peaceful society, creating life, liberty, and property attainable. Thomas Hobbes knew as this agreement the “social contract.” Thomas Hobbes believed that a government headed by a king was the simplest kind that the sovereign might take.

Answer:

To provide safety.

Explanation:

Political philosopher Thomas Hobbes believed that people accepted to be ruled by a government because a government was able to provide safety to humans. Without government, laws, and justice, we could all take advantage of each other in any way we wanted. Moreover, anyone could take advantage of us as well. In order to protect ourselves, and avoid living in constant fear and violence, we establish a government that can exercise control over us and punish criminals. This, in his opinion, is the most effective way of achieving peaceful relationships among humans.
