question 8 (multiple choice worth 5 points) (05.02 mc) in the european theory of absolute monarchy, who checks the power of the king or queen? the parliament or legislative body the highest court of the nation the mass of his or her subjects god

Explanation:

In the European theory of absolute monarchy, the king or queen held absolute power, and the idea was that their power was only checked by God (the divine right of kings theory, where monarchs claimed authority from God, and thus God was seen as the one to check their power, as they were accountable to God). The parliament, highest court, or subjects did not check the monarch's power in absolute monarchy (parliament/legislature had little power, courts were controlled, and subjects had no real check).

Answer:

D. God
