Age of Absolutism

The Age of Absolutism takes its name from a series of European monarchs who increased the power of their central governments. This meant there was a centralization of power.

Absolute monarchs believed they ruled by divine right Absolute monarchs believed they ruled by divine right. This is the belief that monarchs get their power and their right to rule directly from God, therefore, they could have absolute power. From God Power to rule
