The example of 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 characterized by his absolute authority, his dependence on capable administrators like Colbert shows a limitation in his direct control over all aspects of governance.
