Question

what is divine right​

Answer 1

the right of a sovereign to rule as set forth by the theory of government that holds that a monarch receives the right to rule directly from God and not from the people

Answer 2

Answer: In 1603 CE, James 1 of Stuart Dynasty became the King of England after the death of the last queen of Tudor dynasty. The King needed the approval of this Parliament to impose any tax or approve new laws. He did not want the Parliament to question him. He believed that the absolute powers of the king were given by God, so the Kings ruled by a Divine Right. This was called Divine Right Theory.
