Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Absolutism refers to the kind of ruling power with constraints and complete authority over the country. It is a synonym for "despotism," which means all control rests in the ruler above the law and is not bound to any accountability. An absolutist regime provides no freedom or rights, and no rule of law applies in such states. After the defeat of Napoleon, many absolutist regimes were set up in the European States. Absolutism is also synonymous with "absolutist sovereignty".
