An Example

SymbolRuleExplanation The King Must Be Godlike The monarch becomes the personification of the entire state and then creates a program to celebrate his awesomeness and hence the nations greatness The King Must Be In Control The Monarch must be in control: the monarch rules directly through a professional bureaucracy directly answerable to him. The King does not share power with nobles or parliaments The King Must Be Wealthy Absolutists are attracted to mercantilism and centralizing control of the economy to increase tax revenue. Tax authority is absolute and used to pay for rules 1,2,&5! The King Must Impose Religious Conformi ty How can subjects accept the King as God’s representative on earth, how could they even be loyal if they worship differently? The King Must Have An Army Professional Army with trained conscripts and military reforms create the expensive means to enforce #1-4.

Monarch’s desire for programs of magnificence are not going to appeal to Parliaments The Problem of Religion Religious toleration and diversity leaves extremests of various parties scheming to force the country to their views The Problem of foreign policy Monarchs who are poor and religiously divided are incapable of advancing personal foreign policy agendas Louis 5 Rules of AbsolutismBritish Monarch’s 5 Problems Preventing Absolutism
