Question

How was the calling of the Estates-General similar or different to the calling of Parliament by King Charles l of England?

Answer 1

Ans: The calling of the Estates-General is different from the calling of Parliament by King Charles I of England in that the calling of the Estates-General in times of French King Louis XIV did not limit his powers of King, while in the case of the calling of Parliament by King Charles I of England, the Parliament indeed limited the powers of the monarch.
After King Philip XIV called for the Estates-General, the state was set to bring the French Revolution to a beginning. Indeed, Philip was the last monarch before the Revolution. Let's remember that he finished his days as a king when he died in the guillotine in 1793. In the case of King Charles I, he was tried and accused of high treason to England. He was executed in 1649.
