Answer:
<h3>Rule of man and divine rights of kings emphasizes that all powers and sovereignty rests in the hands of a single person.</h3>
Explanation:
Rule of man and divine rights of kings emphasizes that all powers and sovereignty rests in the hands of a single person. When a single person has full discretion and absolute sovereignty over the people, power can be misused or, in most cases, dictatorship may arise.
People began to <u>understand the need of power sharing and representative government</u> as divine rights of kings and rule of man did a lot of harm to the people. <u>Individual rights, freedom of speech and expression and equality</u> developed within the minds of the people with time.
Thus, people demanded for rule of law <u>where every individual had equal rights and freedoms under the codified laws.</u> The kings were also subjective to such laws and could not exercise discretionary powers over anyone under the rule of law.
