SPECIFICIC FEATURES OF THE STATE-TERRITORIAL DEVELOPMENT OF FRANCE AND GERMANY AT THE BEGINNING OF EARLY NEW TIME (ON THE HISTORIOGRAPHICAL MATERIALS)
In this article we make an attempt to give assessment to the processes of the state-territorial development of two West-European countries, France and Germany, in the first decades of the 16th century on the basis of the generalization of the materials of the Russian and foreign historiography. The degree of formation of the absolutist structures, territorial consolidation of the countries, parity of authority of the Supreme and regional governors are compared. The theoretical importance of the analysis consists in the specification of the regional specificity of the initial stage of the modern European civilizations formation.
