vulnerable nobility trying to protect its privileges

Explanation:

French Absolutism is a form of monarchy. The right to rule was relied on the monarchs naturally. It saw its progression in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries throughout Europe. Absolute monarchy means that the entire power and authority is enclosed in the hands of the monarchs by the divine law. Any alteration in the power was subject to the monarch himself. The decision of the king was termed to be the law.  One of the factor that led to absolutism in France was the fear of civil war that may come into action if the power gets shifted on other hands. Therefore, absolute monarchy was adopted in which the power would be intact in the hands of the kings and this would help in keeping the state combined.
