    Mr. Richey contrasts absolutism and constitutionalism as forms of government while discussing the development of English constitutionalism in the Late Middle Ages, which started with King John signing the Magna Carta. This is the first in a series of lectures on the development of English constitutionalism for AP European History students.

    As a history teacher of absolutely brilliant kids, we love your videos. My seventh graders are studying Hobbes, Locke, and their influence on Revolutionary thought, giving us a philosophical background to the primary movers and shakers of the French and American Revolutions. Your videos have been great supplements, but we had to mention, Judy is George's daughter. Jane's the wife! :) "Meet George Jetson. His boy Elroy. Daughter Judy. Jane, his wife." (The song is horribly full of sentence fragments, I know.) Anyway, love your work, keep it up!

    I'm a history teacher, and I want to tell you that you have a great series of videos. However, please note that the Jetsons were originally broadcast, and had their greatest impact, in the 1960's. know because I watched them as a child.This is vital information, should a Jetsons-related question appear on a future AP exam.

    Mr. Richey,
    Love your channel! Was hoping you could clarify something for me... I was researching absolutism recently and several times I came across reference to the key attributes of an absolute monarch: political sovereignty, divine right, and absence of checks and balances. I need clarification on the difference between sovereignty and absence of checks and balances. By my thinking, if one has ultimate control, it would follow that there are no checks on your powers, at least none that you actually have to listen to. So my question is: what differentiates these two attributes? Would you use a different sent of attributes? I studied your chart in the video... and it seems to fit with those attributes but is broken down a bit more.

  • @tomrichey

    I'll add it to my list! I'm currently working on a new video on the Counter-Reformation and the Council of Trent. I may be able to put together one on the Thirty Years' War before it's all said and done. When's your test?

    Hello tom richey, my ap euro tacher loves your powerpoints (you may know him, his name is mr. towmey ) and videos, but what we've noticed is that there isnt a video for the english restoration, but you do have a powerpoint for it. are you ever going to do a video on it or not? i would love to see a video on it because me and a friend are going to present the english resoration to the class, and im sure mr. towmey and other teachers would would appreciate another "richey review" to end class. awesome videos, by the way, i learn a lot from your videos and powerpoints!

    In-between absolute monarchy and constitutional monarchy is traditional monarchy. While there is no constitution, the monarch is limited in the sense that traditional institutions like the Church, guilds, municipalities, etc prevent them from being an absolute ruler. It's rather decentralized and weaker than any constitutional system which only ends up giving excessive power to the state.
