1. Absolute rulers punished anyone who spoke out against them. This of course created tensions among the people. Absolute rulers have been know to be corrupt and to work for self gain. This would mean having oneself own interest instead of country. This would cause good shortages, leading many to die. An example of this are. under the czars rule in the 1800s. The czar forced more exports when tbe country was in a great famine; causing much destruction.
2. Events such as oppression as well as corruption and unfair payments can cause an individual to want change. An example is the Salt March. Gandhi led the march to collect salt. Salt was used very widely and was only sold through the british at very high taxes. This prompted Gandhi to want to change the taxation system placed on locals.
3. Conservatives generally want the government should play a smaller role in regulating buisnesses as well as managing the economy. Liberals support individual rights such as civil rights and human rights. As well as free markets and free trade.
4. Liberals usually want to establish individual right while radicals cultural reform as well as social reform.
5. Absolute rulers would punish anyone who went against them. in forms of protests, manifestos, speeches, or riots. Absolute rulers did not allow for individual freedom. This allowed for the ruler to keep tight control over tbe people.
