Question

How was England different than the absolute monarchies of both France and Russia during this time period?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is B) England became a constitutional monarchy, while France and Russia maintained an absolute monarchy.

Explanation:

England had gone through a  liberal revolution and it was no longer an absolute monarchy. Unlike other countries in Europe, England was ruled by a Monarch with limited powers and there was always a check on what they can do.

A constitution clearly laid down the power of the Monarch and those powers could not be exceeded. The British parliament jealously ensured the limited powers of the Monarch.

However, countries such as France and Russia were completely in control of the Monarch with absolute power in the country.
