It might be correct if you could name at least one Eastern civilization that had a representative republic in the 17th century. I wager you will have a time finding just one.

so its not a? d?

Yes, d.

thank you

You're welcome.

The statement that accurately describes a cultural similarity between Eastern and Western societies is that both cultures have a long history in theatre art, including opera.

To arrive at this answer, let's analyze each option:

1) Eastern and Western cultures instituting representative republics in the 17th century: This statement is not accurate. Representative republics originated in ancient Greece and Rome, and while Western societies have historical examples of representative republics, Eastern societies do not share this specific form of governance in the same time period.

2) Both Confucianism and Christian scriptures telling tales of Abraham and Moses: This statement is also not accurate. While there may be some shared religious figures or stories between Eastern and Western cultures, there is no specific mention of both Confucianism and Christian scriptures telling tales of Abraham and Moses.

3) Both cultures independently inventing guns and gunpowder in the ninth century: This statement is not accurate. The invention of gunpowder and guns is commonly attributed to Chinese culture in the 9th century, and it spread to other regions including the West. Therefore, it was not independently invented by both cultures.

4) Eastern and Western cultures having a long history in theatre art including opera: This statement is accurate. Both Eastern and Western cultures have a rich history in theatre art, including the development of various theatrical forms such as opera.

Therefore, the correct answer is "eastern and western cultures have a long history in theatre art, including opera."
