Imagine you are living in England during the 1600s, just before it changed from a limited monarchy to an absolute monarchy. Write a letter to the king stating your views in opposition to the change to an absolute monarchy l. Give your reasons for opposing the change. Be specific and give examples. Be sure too tell who you are what status you may have

In this fictitious scenario, my name is Henry Decass, a nobleman, childhood friend of the king.

Explanation:

Your royal highness.

After receiving the news about the changes in the format of the monarchy that will change from a limited monarchy to an absolute monarchy, I reflected a lot on the matter and with concern I humbly decided to write to you, asking you to reconsider this change.

In my humble opinion, I see absolute monarchy as a very complicated and tiring system. It is not correct that you, as king, have the full power of our territory. This is because, although you recognize you as a genius, you cannot take all the burden of a country for yourself, as it would spend much of its energy and rationality. It is necessary that the power of the kingdom be divided and that although you are the great master and responsible for everything, it is preferable that there are men of trust who can help you manage this power, the kingdom that is very extensive and that has chances of becoming extend further.

As I said earlier, I recognize that your majesty is great, but unfortunately, you are not omnipresent and cannot command everything, absolutely alone, because in addition to bringing management risks to the kingdom, I believe it will bring risks to your health.

I apologize if it was inconvenient, because as you well know I have always honored our friendship and complicity above all and I have faith that you will listen to my advice with kindness.

From your eternal servant,

Henry Decas.
