Louis XIV, King of France in the second half of the 17th century. The Sun King embodied absolute and personal monarchy in one of the most brilliant periods in the history of that country. The great project of his time was to structure the entire European continent under the sovereignty of the Bourbons. But the consolidation of England in diplomacy, the assertion of the Habsburgs as a power on the Danube, the breaking of the hegemony of Sweden by Russia and Brandenburg implied a new organization of the continent based on the balance between the great states. Europe joined forces against France to avoid its hegemony and it had to accept the new order. On the other hand, in the cultural field his triumph was evident and indisputable. Louis XIV thus imposed a new model of civilization that would result in the Frenchification of Europe.
