History
1 answer:
jeka57 [31]3 years ago
5 0

Absolutism was a very common form of government in Europe between the 16th and 19th centuries and defended the theory of the king's absolute power over the entire nation. The power of kings during the <u>Middle Ages </u>was considered limited compared to the absolutist period, as there was a lot of political fragmentation and the king's influence depended on a relationship of vassalage, in which the exchange of favors between kings and nobles guaranteed real power.

As modern nations were being structured, mainly England, France and Spain, and as trade resurfaced in Europe, a new social class emerged with great economic power: the bourgeoisie. For the bourgeoisie, the political and economic fragmentation that existed since the Middle Ages was not interesting, as it affected their business, mainly because of the differences in currency and taxes existing from one province to another (even in provinces of the same kingdom, there were these differences in currency and taxes).

The nobility, in turn, welcomed the concentration of power in the figure of the monarch as a way to guarantee control of the lands he owned. Thus, the concentration of power in the hands of the king was a demand from the rising bourgeoisie and also from the nobility.

The question has a definition word of "copperheads" which is something they want you to define. So if you rearrange the question, it can be a multiple choice question stating:

Copperheads were midwesterners who sympathized with the south and objected to

A) abolition
B) slavery

Abolition is to over throw something and start a new version of what has been overthrown

Slavery was the ownership of African Americans (seeing as this question was linked to the civil war)

Hope you can find the answer easier now (:
