Answer:

The monarch is the first servant of the state. He enacted reforms following his idea of enlightened absolutism.

Explanation:

King Frederick II (1712-1786), known as Frederick the Great, ruled Prussia from 1740 until his death in 1786. During his reign, he transformed Prussia from a backwards European state to a powerful country with a strong state and a large economy. Frederick the Great was deeply influenced by the ideas of the Enlightment, the 18th century intellectual movement that focused on reason above everything else. He was a proponent of enlightened absolutism, the idea that an absolute monarch should rule not for his own benefit, but for the benefit of his people. Accordingly, <u>he considered himself "the first servant of the state"</u>, and sought to reform the Prussian state according to his ideas of enlightened absolutism rule: <u>He reformed the Prussian bureaucracy, was a supporter of free trade, allowed freedom of speech, supported the arts and education, and encouraged religious tolerance.</u>

When studying , or the history of history, it’s important to realize that every historian presents ideas in a different way. Tha
vitfil [10]

When studying historiography, or the history of history, it’s important to realize that every historian presents ideas in a different way. That’s because they have perspectives that affect how they think and what they believe. However, good historians use a variety of sources to make sure their arguments are based on facts and sound evidence.

Historiography is a social science that studies and analyzes the different ways in which History is written down and interpreted.

Historiography deals with different arguments from Historians, due to the fact that Historians have different perspectives (it could also be theories, hypothesis, and/or ideologies) on the same topics. These different perspectives affect the way Historians interpret historical facts and, therefore, their readings tend to vary.

However, in order to increase the accuracy of their studies, Historians try to use a variety of sources to contrast the facts and make solid arguments out of them.
