Usually, absolute power corrupts these kings and queens. Often, these rulers claim that God put them in power. Thus, God becomes the source of their massive power on earth. We call that claiming Divine Right

Absolute Monarch in France Louis XIV 1638-1715 Absolute Monarch in France

The Palace Of Versailles

Built to impress the nobility and awe the peasantry, the Palace of Versailles became a symbol of Louis XIV’s power and wealth. Here the King could entertain his friends, keep an eye on his nobles, crush his enemies and bankrupt his nation. The Palace was filled with all the luxuries money could buy: Booze, Prostitutes, Drugs, Music, Fine Food, Theater, Tennis Courts, Private Parks and a Zoo.

Absolute Monarchs….blah blah blah Divine Right Blah blah blah blah blah blah King Louis XIV blah blah blah blah blah. Blah blah blah blah. Blah blah blah blah. Blah blah Versailles… Absolute Monarch Divine Right Versailles Summary Pg. 39A

How did Louis XIV get all that $$$? Louis XIV got his wealth from France, or rather from the hard work of the French peasants. Only peasants paid taxes in France and their taxes were very high. Almost $.50 of every $1 went to King Louis and the government. Additionally, those who did not own land, had to work for others for very poor wages, so nobles and the king enjoyed the benefits of almost slave labor. Finally, Louis XIV borrowed money from banks to make up the difference between what he was spending and what he was taking in.

Does Yours look like this? Topic: Absolute Monarchs Name: Class: Period: Date: Now you need QUESTIONS of your own! Write at least one question of your own on the left about information you took notes on at the right. Absolute Monarchs….blah blah blah Divine Right Blah blah blah blah blah blah King Louis XIV blah blah blah blah blah. Blah blah blah blah. Blah blah blah blah. Blah blah Versailles… Borrowed, taxes blah blah blah blah blah How did Louis get all that money? Summary Pg. 39A

What did Louis spend his money on? Entertainment Luxury goods Wars- which he mostly lost.

What could he have spent his money on? Infrastructure like roads, bridges, etc Schools Health care for veterans Or he could have let peasants keep a little more of their money….

And Then There is King George III of England… He’s not an Absolute Ruler (He shares power with Parliament in a Constitutional Monarchy)

George III 1738-1820 King George III owed money after the French and Indian War. He decided to tax the Colonies. Furious when the American colonists objected to the taxes, especially the Stamp Act, George flew into a rage when the Stamp Act was repealed. He thought the colonists should be dealt with harshly for their disobedience. To punish them, he pushed through the  Townshend Acts, in 1766, taxing many good like tea resulting in the Boston Tea Party. King George loses this fight when the American colonies successfully became the United States Of America.

So… Knowing what you know about Enlightenment ideas, the success of the American Revolution, a functioning, King-less Democracy in the Americas, and the spreading philosophies of John Locke, J.J. Rousseau, Montesquieu and Voltaire…. How will the peasants of France feel about Louis XVI?

Reflect and Review Notes Review notes regularly- 1. after class, 2. at least weekly, and 3. before the test. Rewrite key words into Above the Surface, and Below the Surface questions. Review for accuracy, comprehension and spelling. Prepare for tests by covering one side of your notes. Collaborate with others- look at what they thought was important.
