Which of the following is correct for capitalizing historical periods?

  1. Age of louis xiv

  2. Age of Louis XIV

  3. Age of louis XIV

  4. Age of Louis xiv

The correct answer is: Age of Louis XIV

The correct answer is capitalized properly as "Age of Louis XIV" because proper nouns, including names of historical figures and time periods, require capitalization. In this case, "Louis XIV" refers to a specific monarch, which is a proper noun, and therefore both "Louis" and "XIV" should be capitalized. The word "Age" is also capitalized as it is the first word of the phrase. This follows the standard rules of capitalization in English, where titles and historical periods are treated similarly to proper names. This clarity in capitalization helps maintain the significance and distinction of historical periods in writing.
