The Renaissance The Voyages Of Discovery The Reformation The Scientific Revolution The New Monarchies Emerging Nation States Foundation of Modern Europe Emerging Nation States Foundation of Modern Europe

The New Monarchies Machiavelli’s view of the successful ruler –The prince: agent of change in state formation –The need for unity, security and prosperity “How to” model: Absolutism emerges on continent The monarch must break feudal ties to past What to look for in the successful state

The New Monarchies (cont.) Church and nobility subordinated to monarch Bureaucracy to supervise royal policies Royal system of justice Royal monopoly on military power Dependable and adequate source of income Winners and losers in early modern Europe

Thirty Years War (A Very Short Version) War begins over religion but politics and dynastic issues are what’s really at stake. European powers all get involved and stir the pot. Outright banditry causes loss of life (30% of German population) and enormous property damage. (Consult Voltaire’s Candide) Peace of Westphalia, 1648: map of Europe redrawn and unity of HRE denied. Politics take precedence over religion; unity of Christendom in West seems no longer possible.

Russia: The Issue of Warm-Water Ports

Winners and Losers Explain WinnersLosers AustriaPoland PrussiaHoly Roman Empire RussiaOttoman Empire Sweden

Losing Out against Competition Weakening of Monarchy (HRE and Poland) (It’s elective- why a bad idea?) –Poland disappears in 1795 as a result of actions by Russia, Austria and Prussia. –Napoleon abolishes HRE in early 1800s. What a long run – C.E.! Ottoman Empire: Leadership problems (weak sultans) and falling behind in especially military technology)

Winning States Central/Eastern Europe In different ways, different degrees winners establish “service” states which reward “compliant” nobles and create new nobles. (almost no middle class) Foreigners welcomed into state service- a modernizing force Consciously imitating France, the benchmark autocratic state Big Future Issue: the Monarch vs. the State
