1. Joseph II- Germany .

2. Catherine II- Russia .

3. Frederick II- Prussia.

All of these are considered to be one of the most famous Enlightened Despots, also called Benevolent Despots, in history.

An Enlightened Despot is an authoritarian and non-democratic leader who exercises his political power for the benefit of the people, rather than his own benefit or that of a small group.
