Bodin's, classical, definition of sovereignty is: "<span title="French-language text"><i lang="fr">la puissance absolue et perpetuelle d'une République</i></span>" (the absolute and perpetual power of a Republic). His main ideas about sovereignty are found in chapter VIII and X of Book I, including his statement "The sovereign Prince is accountable only to God". </p><p>The <i>Six livres</i> were an immediate success and were frequently reprinted. A revised and expanded Latin translation by the author appeared in 1586. With this work, Bodin became one of the founders of the pragmatic inter-confessional group known as the <i><a href="/wiki/Politique" title="Politique">politiques</a></i>, who ultimately succeeded in ending the Wars of Religion under King <a href="/wiki/Henry_IV_of_France" title="Henry IV of France">Henry IV</a>, with the <a href="/wiki/Edict_of_Nantes" title="Edict of Nantes">Edict of Nantes</a> (1598).

Based on the assumption that a country's climate shapes the character of its population, and hence to a large extent the most suitable form of government, Bodin postulated that a <a href="/wiki/Hereditary_monarchy" title="Hereditary monarchy">hereditary monarchy</a> would be the ideal regime for a temperate nation such as France. This power should be "sovereign", i.e., not be subject to any other branch, though to some extent limited by institutions like the high courts (<i>Parlement</i>) and representative assemblies (<i>États</i>). Above all, the monarch is "responsible only to God", that is, must stand above confessional factions. </p><p>The work soon became widely known.
