Answer:

A, It reinforced his position as an absolute monarch.

Step-by-step explanation:

Louis's nickname as the Sun King was inspired by Louis' dominant status in France as an absolute monarch.

Louis identified his power with the Sun God, Apollo, and Louis believed he was like Apollo because of his divine powers as an absolute monarch.
