Answer:

C)by showing that when blood lineage failed, chaos and war followed

Explanation:

The War of Spanish Succession illustrates the importance of blood lineage to the system of absolute monarchs in Europe "by showing that when blood lineage failed, chaos and war followed."

This is evident when following the death of Charles II, King of Spain, without having any children or apparent heir in 1700. However, he formally let Louis XIV's grandson, Philip, a Bourbon to become the King of Spain. This upset the power balance, and a great fight ensued especially from the family of Habsburg. The war was so great it reached America, West Indies, and the Indian subcontinent.

The war finally ended after the treaty of Utrecht was made in 1713
