established centralized bureaucracy

built st. petersburg to copy style of Western states

built first russian navy

louis xiv

created centralized monarchy

divine right notion

build Versailles to keep aristocrats in check

intendant system of middle class to run actual gov’t

mercantilism to centralize french economy

sweep calvinism out of france

all i can remember atm… who was joseph ii? can’t remember all i know he was an enlightened absolutist/despot lol

ALSO QUESTION: in PR, it says that the test doesn’t ask you anything war-related… does that mean it won’t have a lot of stuff about WWI and WWII?
