"I am the state" basically means that he was the one who made all the decisions - he was the state system, he represented the entire government. Therefore, D is the correct answer. Absolute Monarchy - the monarch is in complete control.

Option D

Absolute Monarchy is the correct answer.

The Louis fourteenth statement " I am the State" refers to a political system in which the kingship is hereditary. It is known as Absolute Monarchy. In such a Government it is the king who holds ultimate authority. There are no laws that can restrict the monarchs' authority. In a constitutional monarchy, there are some laws to restrict the power of the monarch. Brunei and Saudi Arabia are absolute monarchies in modern times.
