Answer:

Absolute Monarchy

Explanation:

Absolute Monarchies were born out of the feudal system when the central authority (the monarch) took enough control of the local lords.

Besides force, a common justification for absolute monarchies was that kings had the divine right to rule their lands.

Perhaps the most famous absolute monarch was Louis XIV, also known as the

"sun king" in reference to his immense power. He ruled France for 72 years and had almost total control of all matters in public life.
