The correct answer is
A) The king was an absolute ruler as well as a leading religious official

This was very similar to how Pharaohs ruled. They were considered to be of Divine origin or sometimes even gods themselves so they ruled both the political aspect and the religious aspect of the country. They were absolute monarchs meaning that they had all the power in the state.
