Monarchs of England and France consolidated their power through various means, including centralizing authority by weakening the nobility, establishing efficient bureaucracies, and creating standing armies. They also utilized Propaganda and symbols of power to legitimize their rule, such as royal ceremonies and court rituals. Additionally, monarchs engaged in strategic marriages to form alliances and expand their territories, ultimately solidifying their control over their realms.
In general terms, monarchs in early England, France, and the Holy Roman Empire consolidated their power in at least the following ways: First, they solidified the support of noble families small and large, whether through intimidation, placation, or some combination. Second, they levied taxes or otherwise ensured sufficient revenue to support the monarchy in peace and in war. Third, they established (or, more firmly established) connections with Church authorities. Finally, they constructed fortifications, established garrisons, and otherwise exerted a military presence in their territory.
Most of the renaissance monarchs controlled many aspects of government by imposed tariffs, the military and religion. Many monarchs ruled in theory that only one should be head of the affairs of the state.
The Kings of England and France won the support of the Church, which did much in the way of keeping their subjects compliant. The English kings developed a smooth and well functioning bureaucracy while the French kings established a hereditary monarchy.
