Ruling by divine right is a political and religious doctrine that asserts a monarch's legitimacy and authority come directly from God, rather than from the consent of the governed or any secular authority. This belief holds that the monarch is God's appointed ruler on Earth, giving them the right to govern without accountability to their subjects. The concept was historically used to justify absolute monarchy, where kings and queens wielded unchecked power, believing their rule was divinely sanctioned.
