The Rise of Absolute Monarchies (1400’s-1700’s)

First things first… What is an Absolute Monarchy? Absolute = All Powerful Monarch = King or Queen Absolute Monarch= An all-powerful king or queen Also, kings and queens handed their power down to their children. It was a line of succession that stayed in the family

Characteristics of Absolute Monarchs It’s GREAT to be the King! “I am the state” They made all the laws They were NOT subject to the laws.

They Ruled by “Divine Right” They believed that they derived their right to rule directly from GOD. Called the Divine Right of Kings Accountable only to GOD. Not the people!

Accumulated Vast Sums of Wealth How…? By seizing new territories in the New World and the Far East Expanding trade overseas and within Europe Taxing the growing wealth of their people

They used their wealth to build LARGE, PERMANENT ARMIES! No more need to depend on feudal contracts with their vassals These armies were loyal to the King, NOT to the Country!

They used these armies to wage war against each other of course! NOW WHAT??? They used these armies to wage war against each other of course!

100 YEARS WAR WHEN: 1337-1453 WHO: England v. France WHY: Rivals for continental power

Consequences French nationalism increased and this resulted in the power of monarch increasing - devotion and loyalty to one's own nation; patriotism England relied more on Parliament as the power in government; England turned to overseas exploration the legislature of Great Britain Knights and vassals no longer enough; need for armies

30 YEARS WAR WHEN: 1618-1648 WHO: All major European powers except England WHY: Series of wars between the princes of separate states of the Roman Empire (Germany) vying for control

Consequences 300 recognized independent states, each determining their own religion and their own foreign policy Ended the Holy Roman Empire Germany not unified for another 200 years

WAR OF SPANISH SUCCESSION WHEN: 1700-1713 WHO: England v. France WHY: England wanted to prevent Spain and France from uniting and increasing the size of their empire after French King Louis XIV’s grandson inherited the throne of Spain.

Consequence France tired of fighting and agreed never to unite with Spain.

Assignment – compare and contrast the wars!
