Answer:

The glorious revolution was the process that took place in Great Britain in 1688 and ended the absolutist monarchies and the beginning of modern parliamentary democracy.

This was a period of English history between 1688 and 1689, where there was an important change of the political system and of the monarchy, it constitutes the first revolution of the modern age.

After several decades of changes and political instability in 16th-century England in the framework of the English revolution, the arrival of James II on the throne and his absolutist measures caused great discontent in the population that caused the glorious revolution that forced said King to leave the throne.

The revolution began due to the intention of King James II to impose the Catholic religion as the official religion of the Kingdom, for this reason Parliament requested the son-in-law of James II, the Dutch prince William of Orange, to take power from the kingdom.

As a condition to take power Guillermo de Orange had to sign the bill of right, which strengthened parliamentary powers and ended with the absolute monarchy in the kingdom.
