The answer is option 4: <u>He believed in the absolute power of kings.</u>
The England King James I (who ruled from 1603 to1625) clashed with the Parliament's ideas several times for his persistent belief in the absolute power of kings, justified for their divine right, which enabled him to rule over all their subjects without interference from anyone. Instead, the Parliament believed that the King must not rule alone, doing all that he pleased.
They both had very different views on how royal finances had to be handled as well as foreign affairs, for example, the Parliament members held that tax collection was an issue that had to be approved by them in order to improve the crown's finances, which had been seriously weakened by the long war with Spain (1585-1604), as for James I, he wanted to collect the taxes on his own, whose purpose wasn't only to improve the government but also to over-spend on his luxury way of living.

The beginning of the European colonization of Southeast Asia occurred along the 16th and 17th Centuries and was marked by a heavy dispute between the great marine traders. The firsts to arrive were the Dutch, Portuguese and Spanish, followed by the French and British spice traders.

Later on, along the 17th and 18th centuries, they focused on dominating ports along the maritime routes, what also allowed them to levy taxes and control prices of the Asian commodities under their control.
The Populist Party wanted to push several issues at the time in the 1890s in the United States.
1. Free Silver--one of their biggest platforms was to change the currency to free silver to make it more affordable for the average person to use, instead of having money backed up by the gold standard.
2. Eight hour workday--They wanted to have workers and laborers be given an eight hour workday to give workers better working conditions than what they currently faced.
3. Income tax--They wanted to have a federal income tax (which later becomes the 16th Amendment) to have different taxes for people based on their income, or how much money they would make. So essentially, a very wealthy person would have higher taxes than a poor person.
4. Regulation of the railroad--They wanted the government to regulate the railroad instead of the big businesses regulating the railroad and coming up with the prices. The farmers especially felt as though it was not fair to allow the business owners to set the prices.
The Populist Party was essentially called the People's Party because they wanted to better represent and recognize the common people in government.
