Some monarchs embraced new ideas from the movement.
Explanation: Enlightenment ideas about reason, law, and reform influenced rulers known as "enlightened despots" (e.g., Frederick the Great, Catherine the Great, Joseph II), who enacted legal, administrative, and educational reforms. The other choices are incorrect: Enlightenment thought tended to increase—rather than decrease—support for revolutionary and representative ideas, and England’s constitutional monarchy did not end because of the Enlightenment.
