Kings and Queens who called upon the Divine Right actually claimed that God himself chose their lineage as the one set to rule and that's why they should rule.
Burgoyne's surrender followed battles with American General Horatio Gates near Saratoga in September and October 1777. With the British losing men and defenses during both engagements, Burgoyne retreated with a weakened army to Saratoga, where he surrendered to General Gates.
