Sun god really into arts

The secret to King Louis XIV efforts to centralized power to the crown of the French monarchy from the nobles, who owned most of the territory of France outright, was based upon one clear objective.  To entice their egos from which to eventually seduce them first into Paris,  and then to create their dependency upon his crown.  France was still coming out of  bitter sectarian conflicts which weaken France itself to Spain, and the English trading shipping interests were likewise not helping either.  Nonetheless, France had already established the first Universal institutions of higher education through the establishment of the Isle de France, giving France the highest educated population in Europe, and was since the eight century known as " THE " trendsetter in what people wore in Europe.  Something which really irked Italians all the time-even today.



Le' ballet entered into the picture as the prolific behavioral central ruse. What an idea, lets act out in full public view what he wanted French society rules to become, through its class of Nobles first. Then, and most important, how they are to behave in his royal court. This was included in the choregraphy of the actual dance performance right their in the open public - while at the sametime they, the very same nobles, having to pay the money for this performance  themselves. 
 
Then in the twist and turn of his own and very nimble genius came the even more brilliant additional idea - behind the pomp and circumstance contained in his vision. He was to create, and to further inspire very, very, very expensive fashion styles for the French nobility.   Selected coutures were invited to his Parisian court carrying the ordered most expensive fabrics and accessories they had, and he showed them how to modify their designs and told of he would help them make a lot of money at the sametime.  He knew this meant that lots of money was going to be spent.

This basically tells me even though the King was about higher education and such, he primarily focused on his ballet and clothing and style.  This is most likely why France is a popular place for the most up to date fashion even today.  It has also lead me to the conclusion that he remains religious even though he is very righteous in his ways.  That concludes that my script will be going against Galileo and his teachings.  I want clothes, not science
