Answer: Louis XIV and James II aspired to an absolutist system of government.
Explanation:
Similarities: Both rulers advocated absolutism as a system of government. We can define the state in absolutism as a monarchy. It is a system of government created by breaking the links between the Middle Ages and the New Age. The rulers, as proponents of these ideas, sought to put all the institutions of the state under their control. The most obvious example of an absolutist monarchy in Europe is France.
Differences : Unlike the French ruler Louis XIV, who fully implemented his absolutist values, this was not the case with James II. James II in his quest to make England an absolutist monarchy did not find popular support. James II's intentions were contrary to the views of the English Parliament. In the end, coming into conflict with Parliament and even the church (absolutism implied the subjugation of the church), James II would ultimately lose this battle. On the other hand, Louis XIV did not have these problems and until his death, he enjoyed the absolutist model of government.
