Absolute Monarchs in
Europe, 1500–1800
Previewing Main Ideas
POWER AND AUTHORITY As feudalism declined, stronger national
kingdoms in Spain, France, Austria, Prussia, and Russia emerged under the
control of absolute rulers.
Geography Study the map. What large empire was surrounded by many of
these national kingdoms?
ECONOMICS Absolute rulers wanted to control their countries’ economies
so that they could free themselves from limitations imposed by the nobility.
In France, Louis XIV’s unrestrained spending left his country with huge debts.
Geography What other evidence of unrestrained spending by an absolute
ruler does the time line suggest?
REVOLUTION In Great Britain, Parliament and the British people challenged
the monarch’s authority. The overthrow of the king led to important political
changes.
Geography Study the map and the time line. Which British Stuart lands
were most affected by the event occurring in 1649?

What are the benefits and
drawbacks of having an
absolute ruler?
You live under the most powerful monarch in 17th-century Europe, Louis XIV
of France, shown below. As Louis’s subject, you feel proud and well protected
because the French army is the strongest in Europe. But Louis’s desire to gain
lands for France and battle enemies has resulted in costly wars. And he expects
you and his other subjects to pay for them.

Louis XIV uses his clothing to
demonstrate his power and status,
as his portrait shows. The gold
flower on his robe is the symbol of
French kings.
2
Louis’s love of finery is apparent not
only in his clothing but also in the
ornate setting for this painting. As
absolute ruler, Louis imposes taxes
to pay for the construction of a
magnificent new palace and to
finance wars.

The government of Louis XIV
enforces laws and provides security.
His sword, scepter, and crown
symbolize the power he wields. Yet
the French people have no say in
what laws are passed or how they
are enforced.

SETTING THE STAGE As you learned in Chapter 18, from 1520 to 1566,
Suleyman I exercised great power as sultan of the Ottoman Empire. A European
monarch of the same period, Charles V, came close to matching Suleyman’s
power. As the Hapsburg king, Charles inherited Spain, Spain’s American
colonies, parts of Italy, and lands in Austria and the Netherlands. As the elected
Holy Roman emperor, he ruled much of Germany. It was the first time since
Charlemagne that a European ruler controlled so much territory.
A Powerful Spanish Empire
TAKING NOTES
A devout Catholic, Charles not only fought Muslims but also opposed Lutherans.
In 1555, he unwillingly agreed to the Peace of Augsburg, which allowed German
princes to choose the religion for their territory. The following year, Charles V
divided his immense empire and retired to a monastery. To his brother Ferdinand,
he left Austria and the Holy Roman Empire. His son, Philip II, inherited Spain,
the Spanish Netherlands, and the American colonies.
Philip II’s Empire Philip was shy, serious, and—like his father—deeply reli-
gious. He was also very hard working. Yet Philip would not allow anyone to help
him. Deeply suspicious, he trusted no one for long. As his own court historian
wrote, “His smile and his dagger were very close.”
Perhaps above all, Philip could be aggressive for the sake of his empire. In
1580, the king of Portugal died without an heir. Because Philip was the king’s
nephew, he seized the Portuguese kingdom. Counting Portuguese strongholds in
Africa, India, and the East Indies, he now had an empire that circled the globe.
Philip’s empire provided him with incredible wealth. By 1600, American
mines had supplied Spain with an estimated 339,000 pounds of gold. Between
1550 and 1650, roughly 16,000 tons of silver bullion were unloaded from
Spanish galleons, or ships. The king of Spain claimed between a fourth and a
fifth of every shipload of treasure as his royal share. With this wealth, Spain was
able to support a large standing army of about 50,000 soldiers.

Defender of Catholicism When Philip assumed the throne, Europe was experi-

not new to Spain. The Reconquista, the campaign to drive Muslims from Spain,
had been completed only 64 years before. In addition, Philip’s great-grandparents

Making
Inferences
What did Philip
want his palace to
demonstrate about
his monarchy?
Isabella and Ferdinand had used the Inquisition to investigate suspected heretics, or
nonbelievers in Christianity.
Philip believed it was his duty to defend Catholicism against the Muslims of the
Ottoman Empire and the Protestants of Europe. In 1571, the pope called on all
Catholic princes to take up arms against the mounting power of the Ottoman Empire.
Philip responded like a true crusader. More than 200 Spanish and Venetian ships
defeated a large Ottoman fleet in a fierce battle near Lepanto. In 1588, Philip
launched the Spanish Armada in an attempt to punish Protestant England and its
queen, Elizabeth I. Elizabeth had supported Protestant subjects who had rebelled
against Philip. However, his fleet was defeated. (See map opposite.)
Although this setback seriously weakened Spain, its wealth gave it the appearance of strength for a while longer. Philip’s gray granite palace, the Escorial, had
massive walls and huge gates that demonstrated his power. The Escorial also
reflected Philip’s faith. Within its walls stood a monastery as well as a palace.
Golden Age of Spanish Art and Literature
Spain’s great wealth did more than support navies and build palaces. It also allowed
monarchs and nobles to become patrons of artists. During the 16th and 17th centuries, Spain experienced a golden age in the arts. The works of two great painters
show both the faith and the pride of Spain during this period.
El Greco and Velázquez Born in Crete, El Greco (GREHK•oh) spent much of his
adult life in Spain. His real name was Domenikos Theotokopoulos, but Spaniards
called him El Greco, meaning “the Greek.” El Greco’s art often puzzled the people of
his time. He chose brilliant, sometimes clashing colors, distorted the human figure,
and expressed emotion symbolically in his paintings. Although
unusual, El Greco’s techniques
showed the deep Catholic faith of
Spain. He painted saints and martyrs as huge, long-limbed figures
that have a supernatural air.
The paintings of Diego
Velázquez (vuh•LAHS•kehs), on
the other hand, reflected the
pride of the Spanish monarchy.
Velázquez, who painted 50 years
after El Greco, was the court
painter to Philip IV of Spain. He
is best known for his portraits of
the royal family and scenes of
court life. Like El Greco, he was
noted for using rich colors.
? In Las
Meninas (The
Maids of Honor),

Philip IV’s
daughter and
her attendants.
Don Quixote The publication of
Don Quixote de la Mancha in
1605 is often called the birth of
the modern European novel. In
this book, Miguel de Cervantes
(suhr•VAN•teez) wrote about a
poor Spanish nobleman who went
a little crazy after reading too
many books about heroic knights.
Absolute Monarchs in Europe 591
Hoping to “right every manner of wrong,” Don Quixote rode forth in a rusty suit of
armor, mounted on a feeble horse. At one point, he mistook some windmills for giants:
PRIMARY SOURCE
He rushed with [his horse’s] utmost speed upon the first windmill he could come at,
and, running his lance into the sail, the wind whirled about with such swiftness, that the
rapidity of the motion presently broke the lance into shivers, and hurled away both
knight and horse along with it, till down he fell, rolling a good way off in the field.
MIGUEL DE CERVANTES, Don Quixote de la Mancha
Some critics believe that Cervantes was mocking chivalry, the knightly code of the
Middle Ages. Others maintain that the book is about an idealistic person who longs
for the romantic past because he is frustrated with his materialistic world.
The Spanish Empire Weakens
Certainly, the age in which Cervantes wrote was a materialistic one. The gold and
silver coming from the Americas made Spain temporarily wealthy. However, such
treasure helped to cause long-term economic problems.
Inflation and Taxes One of these problems was severe inflation, which is a
decline in the value of money, accompanied by a rise in the prices of goods and services. Inflation in Spain had two main causes. First, Spain’s population had been
growing. As more people demanded food and other goods, merchants were able to
raise prices. Second, as silver bullion flooded the market, its value dropped. People
needed more and more amounts of silver to buy things.
Spain’s economic decline also had other causes. When Spain expelled the Jews
and Moors (Muslims) around 1500, it lost many valuable artisans and businesspeople. In addition, Spain’s nobles did not have to pay taxes. The tax burden fell on
the lower classes. That burden prevented them from accumulating enough wealth
to start their own businesses. As a result, Spain never developed a middle class.
Making Spain’s Enemies Rich Guilds that had emerged in
Tulip Mania
Tulips came to Europe from Turkey
around 1550. People went wild over
the flowers and began to buy rare
varieties. However, the supply of
tulips could not meet the demand,
and prices began to rise. Soon
people were spending all their
savings on bulbs and
taking out loans so that
they could buy more.
Tulip mania reached a
peak between 1633 and
1637. Soon after, tulip
prices sank rapidly.
Many Dutch families
lost property and
were left with
bulbs that were
nearly worthless.
592 Chapter 21
the Middle Ages still dominated business in Spain. Such
guilds used old-fashioned methods. This made Spanish
cloth and manufactured goods more expensive than those
made elsewhere. As a result, Spaniards bought much of
what they needed from France, England, and the
Netherlands. Spain’s great wealth flowed into the pockets of
foreigners, who were mostly Spain’s enemies.
To finance their wars, Spanish kings borrowed money
from German and Italian bankers. When shiploads of silver
came in, the money was sent abroad to repay debts. The
economy was so feeble that Philip had to declare the
Spanish state bankrupt three times.
The Dutch Revolt In the Spanish Netherlands, Philip had
to maintain an army to keep his subjects under control. The
Dutch had little in common with their Spanish rulers. While
Spain was Catholic, the Netherlands had many Calvinist
congregations. Also, Spain had a sluggish economy, while
the Dutch had a prosperous middle class.
Philip raised taxes in the Netherlands and took steps to
crush Protestantism. In response, in 1566, angry Protestant
mobs swept through Catholic churches. Philip then sent an

army under the Spanish duke of Alva to punish the rebels. On a single day in 1568,
the duke executed 1,500 Protestants and suspected rebels.
The Dutch continued to fight the Spanish for another 11 years. Finally, in 1579,
the seven northern provinces of the Netherlands, which were largely Protestant,
united and declared their independence from Spain. They became the United
Provinces of the Netherlands. The ten southern provinces (present-day Belgium)
were Catholic and remained under Spanish control.
The Independent Dutch Prosper
The United Provinces of the Netherlands was different from other European states of
the time. For one thing, the people there practiced religious toleration. In addition,
the United Provinces was not a kingdom but a republic. Each province had an elected
governor, whose power depended on the support of merchants and landholders.
Dutch Art During the 1600s, the Netherlands became what Florence had been dur-
ing the 1400s. It boasted not only the best banks but also many of the best artists
in Europe. As in Florence, wealthy merchants sponsored many of these artists.
Rembrandt van Rijn (REHM•BRANT vahn RYN) was the greatest Dutch artist of
the period. Rembrandt painted portraits of wealthy middle-class merchants. He
also produced group portraits. In The Night Watch (shown below), he portrayed a
group of city guards. Rembrandt used sharp contrasts of light and shadow to draw
attention to his focus.
Another artist fascinated with the effects of light and dark was Jan Vermeer
(YAHN vuhr•MEER). Like many other Dutch artists, he chose domestic, indoor
settings for his portraits. He often painted women doing such familiar activities as
pouring milk from a jug or reading a letter. The work of both Rembrandt and
Vermeer reveals how important merchants, civic leaders, and the middle class in
general were in 17th-century Netherlands.

Dutch Trading Empire The stability of the government allowed the Dutch people
to concentrate on economic growth. The merchants of Amsterdam bought surplus
grain in Poland and crammed it into their warehouses. When they heard about poor
harvests in southern Europe, they shipped the grain south while prices were highest. The Dutch had the largest fleet of ships in the world—perhaps 4,800 ships in
1636. This fleet helped the Dutch East India Company (a trading company controlled by the Dutch government) to dominate the Asian spice trade and the Indian
Ocean trade. Gradually, the Dutch replaced the Italians as the bankers of Europe.
Absolutism in Europe
Even though Philip II lost his Dutch possessions, he was a forceful ruler in many
ways. He tried to control every aspect of his empire’s affairs. During the next few
centuries, many European monarchs would also claim the authority to rule without
limits on their power.
The Theory of Absolutism These rulers wanted to be absolute monarchs, kings or
queens who held all of the power within their states’ boundaries. Their goal was to
control every aspect of society. Absolute monarchs believed in divine right, the idea
that God created the monarchy and that the monarch acted as God’s representative on
Earth. An absolute monarch answered only to God, not to his or her subjects.
Absolutism
Absolutism was the political belief that
one ruler should hold all of the power
within the boundaries of a country.
Although practiced by several monarchs
in Europe during the 16th through
18th centuries, absolutism has been
used in many regions throughout
history. In ancient times, Shi Huangdi
in China, Darius in Persia, and the
Roman caesars were all absolute rulers.
(See Chapters 4, 5, and 6.)
Causes
• Religious and territorial conflicts created fear
and uncertainty.
• The growth of armies to deal with conflicts
caused rulers to raise taxes to pay troops.
• Heavy taxes led to additional unrest and
peasant revolts.

Growing Power of Europe’s Monarchs As Europe emerged from the Middle
Ages, monarchs grew increasingly powerful. The decline of feudalism, the rise of
cities, and the growth of national kingdoms all helped to centralize authority. In
addition, the growing middle class usually backed monarchs, because they
promised a peaceful, supportive climate for business. Monarchs used the wealth of
colonies to pay for their ambitions. Church authority also broke down during t…
