Enlightened absolutism, also called Enlightened Despotism, is an ideology that believes the philosophical values of the File:Monkeyzz-Enlightenment.png Enlightenment should be enforced through an Absolute Monarchy. enlightened absolutism can be summarised with the quote "Everything for the people, nothing by the people". Famous enlightened despots include Frederick the Great of Prussia, Napoleon Bonaparte of France, Joseph II of the Holy Roman Empire, and Catherine the Great of Russia.

Personality

Very confident, enlightened absolutism will go out of it's way to present himself as a savior and protector of his plebs - even as he goes apeshit the moment one of them tries reduce his absolute power. Can be genuinely well-meaning even in his narcissistic moments, and in many ways act like Autocracy if he actually stopped looking at a mirror for more than 5 seconds each time, though in the flipside even in his helpful moments he can come off as abusive and/or an asshole towards those he wants to help.

Relationships

Friends

  • Absolute Monarchism - You taught me to keep the crowns power strong in order to govern more efficiently.
  • Bonapartism - One of the very first Enlightened Monarchs.
  • Monarcho-Socialism - I'm skeptical about these leftist economic policies, but we seem to be fully compatible with each other, in spite of what father says.

Mixed

  • Mladorossism - You are like my socialist buddy above, but much weirder and wacky. What the hell are you even meant to be? And your fascist leanings makes me fear you aren't too enthusiastic for the pleb support i'm meant to hold up.
  • Constitutional Monarchism - Brother, i'm all for upholding the pleb's plights and listening to their problems, but do you really need to give them a place in your government? You already do your job so well without them messing with you!
  • File:Monkeyzz-Enlightenment.png Enlightenment - FATHER I'M UPHOLDING YOUR IDEALS WHY WON'T YOU LOVE ME?
  • Matriarchal Monarchism - Of course we can have an enlightened queen my sister, but why must it be always a queen?
  • Anarcho-Monarchism - From a technical viewpoint you have some similarities to me, but i still have no idea how you work. Also, anarchism? Are you sure you aren't just planning on secretely transfering the power to the peasants?
  • Longism - He might be a rep*blican, but he follows similar ideas, even if his "every man a king" speech makes me very suspicious sometimes.

Enemies

  • Carlism - Why do you oppose the Enlightenment? Can't you see we can have both an absolute king in charge of the government while listening to these so-useful tips these enlightened philosophers gave to me? Why do you hate me?
  • Republicanism - Opposing the king, even as he gives you, a pleb, a voice in my absolute rule? Such Arrogance!
  • Jacobinism - See? This is why the plebs shouldn't be in charge! SUCH ARROGANCE!
  • Anti-Fascism - Aren't you just the modern version of Jacobinism?
