LE:
Which type of government is best
characterized by the quotation below?
"... The person of the King is sacred, and to
attack him in any way is an attack on religion
itself. Kings represent the divine majesty and have
been appointed by Him to carry out His purposes.
Serving God and respecting kings are bound
together."
-- Bishop Jacques Bossuet
communism vs. capitalism
limited republic / democracy
limited monarchy
absolutim/ divine right

Respuesta :

The correct answer is D. Absolutism/ divine right

Explanation:

Absolutism is a political perspective and form of government in which all the political power is held by the monarch. This means the monarch has unlimited power, and the citizens' will is not considered. Additionally, this idea is connected to the divine right because it was considered the king was chosen by God to reign.

These two concepts are characterized by the quotation because the author considers the King as sacred "Kings represent the divine majesty and have been appointed by Him to carry out His purposes"; also, because of the divine right, the author states the power and actions of the king should be respected "Serving God and respecting kings are bound together", which suggest the king has absolute power.
