Enlightened absolutism was a form of rule where monarchs ruled with absolute power while incorporating Enlightenment principles into their governance, such as religious tolerance and legal reforms. King Frederick the Great of Prussia is often cited as an example of a ruler who practiced enlightened absolutism by implementing policies to benefit his subjects while maintaining his autocratic authority.
Absolutism was only possible in Europe after the sovereigns were able to overcome the local vested power of nobles, through the use of national armies without local agglomeration. However, during the feudal period, English nobles (barons) forced the monarchy to guarantee their legal position with the Magna Carta. As a result, when the English monarchy would finally be militarily capable of asserting absolutism, it was effectively prevented from doing so because of the barons' power in Parliament. Conversely, French, Spanish, Prussian, Austrian, and Russian nobles did not have these protections and lost power as monarchs became more capable of consolidating their power under absolutism.
