King Louis XIV of France, Peter the Great of Russia, and Frederick the Great of Prussia practiced different policies, but they shared some overlapping themes.

1. **Westernization**: This was particularly associated with Peter the Great. He implemented extensive reforms to modernize Russia, adopting Western technology, culture, and styles of governance.

2. **Enlightened Despotism**: Both Frederick the Great and Peter the Great are often associated with enlightened despotism. They embraced some ideas of the Enlightenment, including the promotion of education and legal reform, while maintaining absolute control over their states.

3. **Expansionism**: All three monarchs pursued expansionist policies to some extent. Louis XIV expanded French territories through war and diplomacy, Peter the Great sought access to warm-water ports and territories in the Baltic region, and Frederick the Great expanded Prussia through military campaigns.

4. **Religious Tolerance**: Frederick the Great is known for promoting religious tolerance within his territories. Peter the Great allowed some religious tolerance to increase control over the diverse populations of Russia, but Louis XIV is known for revoking the Edict of Nantes, diminishing religious tolerance for Huguenots in France.

In summary, while each of these monarchs had various focuses, "Westernization" is most directly associated with Peter the Great, "Enlightened Despotism" is relevant to both Frederick the Great and Peter the Great, while all three exhibited "expansionism" in their policies. Religious tolerance is more distinctly tied to Frederick the Great.
