Answer: it meant the author of the text believed that the royal power should be absolute and that the King need not render any account of his actions.

Explanation: The author (Bishop Jacques-Bénigne Bossuet,) wrote that kings and queens should have absolute power and make all of the decisions because if they don't then they couldn't do any good or avert evil, but the glorious revolution convinced people that the monarchy shouldn't have all the power.

He went on to make comparison between God and the monarchy saying "As all perfection and all strength are united in God, so all the power of individuals is united in the person of the prince." Jacques-Bénigne Lignel Bossuet was a French bishop and theologian, renowned for his sermons and considered by many to be one of the most brilliant orators of all time.

Is it fair to claim that powers like Britain, France, and Belgium got a raw deal during imperialism?
goblinko [34]

The statement is TRUE.

Old imperialism was characterized by direct occupation and dominance of a territory, and started with the arrival of the Spanish to America leaded by Columbus in 1492. Colonized territories depended on their mother country for political, economic, social and cultural issues. Apart from Spain, also other countries such as France, UK or Belgium created their own empires.

The relationships established with the colonist were mostly profitable for the mother country, specially in economic terms. Such system allowed the mother country to consume raw materials, minerals and other resources from the colonies only paying for the costs of their obtention or extraction, and to use them to produce manufactures. Subsequently, they traded the final products in the international markets, becoming powerful exporting nations. They even sold those final products back in the colonies.
