Answer: A) It set a precedent for monarchs sharing power with Parliament.
Explanation:
In the Glorious revolution of 1688, King James II was overthrown and his daughter Mary along with her husband William of Orange were enthroned.
King James had been known to have his issues with Parliament which was shown when he disbanded parliament so that he may instil a new one that would be more subservient to him.
Upon his overthrow, the subsequent negotiation with parliament saw the monarchy placed on more restrictions than at any other point in history which effectively led to the sharing of power between the monarchs and parliament.
Answer:
A. It set a precedent for monarchs sharing power with Parliament.
Explanation:
The Glorious Revolution was the overthrow of King Jacob II in 1688 by the parliamentarians and the establishment of the first parliamentary monarchy in Europe. After the overthrow of Jacob II, William of Orange was crowned king, and the powers of the king were decreased to a large extent, ending with the absolute monarchy in England. The triumph of the Glorious revolution meant the victory of the parliament and the British bourgeoisie, whose interests, since then, were represented by parliamentarians and attended by the government. It was a precedent of the French Revolution and established a climate of religious tolerance in Great Britain. Since then, the parliamentary monarchy that was established ruled in England, and later in the United Kingdom, uninterruptedly until today.
