Richelieu
Cardinal Richelieu was a French clergyman and statesman who served as Chief Minister to King Louis XIII. He is credited with consolidating royal power and strengthening the central government during the early 17th century. His political strategies and advocacy for 'raison d'État' (reason of state) have positioned him as a key figure in discussions of realpolitik, as he prioritized state interests and power over traditional ethical considerations.
