Modern European History: Essay #3
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the seventeenth century, the political power of the Parliament in
|
|
England, and the Monarchy in France increased greatly. These conditions
|
|
were inspired by three major changes: the aftermath of the reformation, the
|
|
need for an increased governmental financing, and the reorganizing of
|
|
central governments. These three points were each resolved in a different
|
|
way in both England and in France.
|
|
|
|
The first major point which eventually increased political power was
|
|
the aftermath of the Protestant reformation. In England, after the
|
|
establishment of the separate Anglican church of England there were many
|
|
protestant groups left in England still in conflict. These groups all
|
|
tried to push and pull parliament in their favor -- which ultimately made
|
|
it so that nothing could be done. These conflicts even came to the point
|
|
of bloody civil wars and suffering on both sides of the fighting.
|
|
Parliament ultimately decided to stop these wars by creating religious Act
|
|
of Toleration (1689) for the non-conformist protestants. For many people,
|
|
this caused more unity in England and increased power. In France, the
|
|
decision was made to unify the country through the establishment of a
|
|
single religious authority, the Catholic Church. The king of France became
|
|
the heart of this policy, which gave him control of religion when this went
|
|
into effect.
|
|
|
|
The next major point was the increase in need for governmental
|
|
financing. In England, taxing had become under the control of Parliament.
|
|
In addition to this, the cost of running a government in general had gone
|
|
up and the country needed more money. Because the king didn't have as much
|
|
power to tax as he pleases, the government could make a firm and accurate
|
|
taxation of the people. In France, the price of government had also gone
|
|
up. However, here the was a monarchy and a king with great control over
|
|
the government. Using his control of the economy, a strong "Mercantilism"
|
|
system was used aimed at maximizing foreign exports and reserves. The king
|
|
became the center of this new power.
|
|
|
|
The last major point which increased political power was the
|
|
reorganizing of the central governments in both England and in France. The
|
|
economic changes in this century required new relationships between the
|
|
King and his subjects. In England, the parliament because of this need,
|
|
grew to have power over the king and cause great toleration of people's
|
|
beliefs, in addition to keeping a strong central government. In France,
|
|
the Parliaments of Henry IV were totally changed by the next active king,
|
|
Louis XIV. Louis XIV created a powerful monarchy the gave him absolute
|
|
power. He used the slogans "One king, one law, one faith" and "I am the
|
|
state" to demonstrate his attitudes toward what a leader should be in the
|
|
setting of seventeenth century France.
|
|
|
|
These three points of show how France and England adapted to the needs
|
|
of the seventeenth century. While similar pressures existed in each
|
|
county, such as finances and religious differences, each responded in a
|
|
manner based on the philosophies and cultures of their land. This increase
|
|
in political power has vastly effected the destinies of both these
|
|
countries forever.
