The correct response that illustrates how Louis XIV’s absolute power was limited is his reliance on Jean-Baptiste Colbert to make reforms for him.

While Louis XIV is often seen as the epitome of absolute monarchy, his dependence on Colbert for financial and administrative reforms indicates a limitation on his power, as he had to rely on another individual to implement policies and manage the economy effectively.
