Which enlightened ruler am I?

Though I was considered an absolute monarch, I always tried to do my best for the Prussian people. I allowed for freedom of the press and religion and made the Prussian educational system one of the best in Europe. I did not believe in the divine right of kings and just thought of myself as a citizen like everyone else.

A.Catherine the Great
B.Frederick the Great
C.Joseph II

The correct answer is B. Frederick the Great. He was one of the greatest Prussian leaders ever and is famous for his military accomplishments, mostly related to his successful participation in the Seven Years' war after which Prussia became one of the leading powers in the entire Europe. After him it all went down and Prussia started losing its influence.
