Best answer
The Divine Rights of Kings Theory was propagated in Europe by Kings like James I (England). It explained that the Monarchs were God’s representatives on earth to whom, the people had to render habitual obedience. The King was infallible and unquestionable as he derived his power from God. Disobedience to the King was akin to sinning against God. This theory was used to strengthen the Absolute Monarchy in Europe.
