Answer:

King Philip got his power from the "divine right of kings", meaning he was born into it and believe this power was a right straight from God. His father Charles V was Holy Roman Emporer, he retired making Philip II King of Spain.

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute = All Powerful

Monarch = King or Queen.

This is a ruler who has complete power and control over everything will no laws to oppose this power.
