Solution

The statement that Louis XIV, Philip II, and Peter the Great would most likely support is "The king is entitled to unquestioning obedience."

Here's why:

  1. Louis XIV of France, Philip II of Spain, and Peter the Great of Russia were all absolute monarchs. This means they believed in absolute monarchy, a form of government where the monarch has absolute power among his or her people.

  2. An absolute monarch has unrestricted political power over the sovereign state and its people. So, they would believe that the king is entitled to unquestioning obedience, as this aligns with their views on absolute monarchy.

  3. The other statements about government being administered by people of all beliefs, people having the right to revolt against an unjust government, and parliament representing the best interests of the people, do not align with the principles of absolute monarchy. These statements suggest a more democratic form of government, which is not what Louis XIV, Philip II, and Peter the Great would have supported.
