It is quite clear that Jean-Baptiste Colbert, Louis XIV’s chief accountant, was instrumental in bringing back the financial glory of France after the Fronde (1648 - 1653). Colbert had instituted a clear and complete accounting structure for Louis that provided Louis with the financial information he needed to run his kingdom - including pocket size account books.

Why was this the case and what were the implications for Louis and for France?
