Main Ideas behind the Glorious Revolution.
The Glorious Revolution was basically a religious revolution. The Catholic church had power over everything and didn't like change. It all started when King Henry Vlll became angry with his wife because she did not have a male child. King This caused king Henry to want to divorce his wife. At this time, the only way to have a divorce was to ask the Catholic Church for permission. King Henry asked for permission and he was denied of divorcing his wife. Upon this happening, King Henry decided to make a church of his own so that he could get his way. As a result, the Church of England was born and he was now able to divorce his wife. The Catholic Church wasn't happy about the protestant church and the people of the Catholic Church began to kill protestants. This Revolution happened because the Catholic's were persecuting and murdering the Protestants . King James eventually became king and began to persecute protestants. James ignored the power of the parliament so they called upon William lll and Mary ll to overthrow him. There was absolutely no bloodshed as a result of the Glorious Revolution and William came to power of the Monarchy. This became the first model of a representative government and from then on out there was limits to the power of the kings.
