The loyalty of the Catholic clergy was solidified in 1685 when Louis XIV repealed this law,

effectively ending religious tolerance for the Protestants in France.

The Edict of Nantes

Explanation:

This Edict was signed by Henry IV in 1598. According to this document, the Protestants and their beliefs would no be persecuted, and the freedom of creed was allowed. The decree authorized the freedom of worship, with certain limits, for the Protestants. The promulgation of this edict ended the religious wars in France that devastated the country during the 16th century. With the revocation of the Edict by Louis XIV, for political and religious reasons, religious tolerance comes to an end in France.

social contract theory basically says that all individuals are born equal, and provided a god given right to consent to be governed. american government is based of this

thomas hobbes and john locke said that we are selfish, individualistic, and constantly at war with each other, therefore we need to be controlled. 

government is defined as the legitimate use of force to control human behavior within territorial boundaries, here comes in hobbes and locke.

hobbes takes the part about controlling human behavior. while locke takes the part of legitimate use of force, since force is not legitimate unless there is consent of the people. 

there are basically 3 goals of the government: 1) maintain order by protecting life and property. 2) providing public goods, those which are typically not provided by the public sector, such as roads and education. 3) promote equality be it political, opportunist or outcome equality.
