Thinking Critically
1. The Hapsburg empire covered a vast area – including Spain, Germany, Austria, and many colonies; the Tudors ruled only over England. The Hapsburgs were Catholic; the Tudors were mostly Protestant. The Hapsburgs were a large family with many branches; the Tudors had just one branch, which died out with Elizabeth I. The Tudors defeated the Hapsburgs in the Spanish Armada.
3. Possible answer: Richelieu controlled Louis XIII, so absolute power meant greater power for Richelieu.
4. Activities that benefited France: Louis made France a centre of European culture; he built a strong Economy; he organized a powerful army.
Activities that did not benefit France: Louis spent money extravagantly in the building of Versailles; her persecuted the Huguenots; he imposed unfair taxes; he started ruinous wars.
