00:08

one letter away from being a delicious quest sel or

00:12

any claire We're not take a look The image right

00:15

00:22

in what and hear your potential answers All right So

00:28

we're talking about challenging absolute authority which kind of brings

00:31

up the question if it's absolute authority can it be

00:34

challenged Have we entered a paradox Is this like the

00:37

twilight zone We anyway back to the question of all

00:41

the action bills listed which posed a major challenge toe

00:44

absolutism Was it be the habeas corpus act Well sort

00:49

it challenged absolutism but not the kind we're talking about

00:52

We're looking for a challenge tow absolute rule but this

00:55

act forced the court to examine evidence but before detaining

00:59

prisoners a point for civil liberties Yes but not the

01:03

answer we're looking for How about see the treaty of

01:05

paris Well that's the one that ended the seven years

01:08

war between great britain and france removing friends from north

01:11

america and ending all foreign military threats to the british

01:16

colonies So not only is this answer wrong but it

01:18

actually kind of the exact opposite of what we're looking

01:21

01:24

have saved lives and ended a war but at what

01:26

cost and all that the act of settlement did was

01:29

decided who would succeed the english and irish thrones Not

01:34

exactly the thrilling challenge to the authority we're looking for

01:37

We want disneyland This is more of an elementary school

01:39

playground Sorry that means that a major challenge the absolutism

01:43

was a the english bill of rights drafted in sixteen

01:47

eighty nine bill challenged absolute rule in europe by guaranteeing

01:51

certain rights to citizens and protecting them from the power

01:54

of the crown by giving people individual rights above the

01:57

crown's rule The crown's rule was effect really diminished not

02:01

to say that the crown didn't still rule at the

02:03

time I mean you know just looking then leader william

02:06
