In what ways may religion and laws benefit an emperor? How may they hinder an emperor?

Religion and laws were the pillars of the governance of the ancient and medieval periods.

Explanation:

The medieval people believed in the notion of the divine origin of the king that means the king held the superior position because he was appointed by God. They felt the king was above the rules too because his power was driven from God. The laws were made by clergy often to secure the position of the King in society. However, religion and laws sometimes posed difficulty to the Kong because they restrict his sphere and anything against these institutions would threaten the position of the Emperor.
