Answer:

B. Everything revolves around the sun; Louis believed it to be the perfect symbol for his reign

Step-by-step explanation:

Louis XIV was known to be a very self-absorbed king. Therefore, it would make sense that his symbol would represent his ideals. He took the the statement "The world revolves around you," to a whole new extent.
