Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Frederick William II was the King of Prussia who established religious policies that went directly against the Enlightenment and intended to restore traditional Protestantism. He did not persecute the Protestants (he was a Protestant), but he had a very strong attachment to orthodoxy, so what he did was to prevent evangelical priests from teaching anything beyond what was in the official booklet, and proclaiming the need to protect the Christian religion against the Enlightenment and subject schools under the supervision of orthodox clerics.
