Which event in English history came to be known as the glorious revolution?

The Glorious Revolution refers to the events of 1688-1689, when King James II of England was deposed and replaced by William of Orange and his wife Mary II. This bloodless overthrow was driven by growing fears of Catholic absolutism under James II and the desire for Protestant governance. The revolution established constitutional monarchy and affirmed the supremacy of Parliament over the crown, leading to the Bill of Rights in 1689. This event marked a significant shift in political power and the establishment of a more democratic governance framework in England.
