Age of Absolutism: Frederick II of Prussia

During the reign, I was most concentrated in expanding my territory, but now that I succeed I have expanded my territory to a new heights and included it in Silesia, Austria. This is my decision to expand the empire, but I used the power of my army to achieve this goal. I believe that I am honest, smart and kind ruler. Therefore, the treatment of the person I conquered is not affected by the way I treat myself; they are my family so they are treated with hospitality and caution.

The most attractive leader for me is Prussia's great king Frederick II. He ruled Prussia from 1740 to 1786. Frederick II is one of Prussia's greatest, most enlightened but absolute rulers. Frederick was one of the greatest military geniuses, he adopted various new strategies to improve his country, and strengthened the economy, his country, all important things. Defeat a larger or better army by concentrating his power on some of his enemies in the following way. He built a strong army to fight enemies and expand troops. In addition to the military, he did other things to improve the economy as a whole, for example:

As pointed out in the first document, Prussia's Frederick II said: "The monarchy is in the same relationship as his head for his people." This sentence means an absolute ruler Prussia's Frederick II believed that an absolute ruler was the leader or leader of the people he ruled. This means that he believes that absolute ruler is the one who makes a decision. Like the body's head, people seem to be the rest of the body. This represents the way he thinks that absoluteism should be practiced.

Frederick William I is today known as one of the most hardworking, dedicated and powerful absolute monarchs in history. He is believed to have created the wealth for Prussia by bringing absolute control to Prussia, establishing one of the most powerful forces in history, and strengthening the Prussian economy. When Frederick William I died in 1740, the Prussian Empire was awesome. Frederick William I gave the throne to his son Frederick Wilhelm II.

Frederick William II won the Prussian throne in 1740 and continued his father's success. Like his father, Frederick William II ruled the absolute monarch. Frederick gave himself the name "Prussian's first servant", and in return for all that he did for Prussia, people gave him the name "Frederick the Great" It was. There was nothing that pulled his attention at the Prussian government. Frederick William II further strengthened the Prussian economy by exporting large amounts of raw materials and food. Frederick William II has begun mining precious natural resources in Europe. Frederick Wilhelm II also improved Prussian agriculture by encouraging farmers from all over Europe to emigrate to Prussia. So Frederick William II introduced scientific agricultural techniques and new crops for their cultivation. As exports increased, Frederick William II's Prussian wealth gradually lost control. Generally, the life of Prussia is great under the rule of Frederick William II.
