- The divine rights of the king's was the belief that <u>c.</u><u> </u><u>the monarch had ultimate authority and that authority had been conferred by God</u><u>.</u>
- This was believed & told by the monarchs in Europe in order to prove themselves as the supreme leader over the people. They added that God had conferred this right upon them because the ordinary people in Europe back then were strong believers of God & didn't want to offend anyone or anything that had to with God (in Europe, Christianity was the major religion). So, now the monarchs had all authority over the people.
