Match the description to the rules of England in the 17th century
Firlakuza [10]

Mary II—who accepted the Bill of Rights—ascended to the English throne as a joint monarch.

<h3>Determine which kings in seventeenth-century England correspond to the above descriptions.</h3>

  • Mary II- adopted the Bill of Rights and then came to the English crown as a joint king.
  • David Cameron - Ireland was conquered, and the Commonwealth was founded.
  • King Charles I- lost a protracted Civil War to armies supporting Parliament.
  • William III - was crowned king following a time when England was under commonwealth government.
  • James II- placed Catholics to positions of power and enlisted them in the military

<h3>I matched them because</h3>
  • The Charter of Rights, which significantly curtailed royal authority and "broadened constitutional legislation," also granted Parliament control over the military and finances. It also created the "royal succession," according to which no Roman Catholic will ever rule England. Additionally, it was asserted that "Englishmen" had certain unalienable "civil & political rights," which had a significant influence on the establishment of the United States. The Bill of Rights was drafted about a century later. Following the bloodless Glorious Revolution of England, Mary, the king's daughter, and William von Orange, her husband, were recognized as traditional "British sovereigns" under the new British Bill of Rights.
  • In 1649 with the Scottish invasion and again in 1650, Cromwell led the English army. The English, Scottish, and Irish Commonwealth was established as a result of this, which began with the Worcester Battle on September 3, 1651, and a "parliamentary victory." In 1650, Cromwell was appointed as an effective Commander in Chief by the "Lord General of the Parliamentary" military forces.
  • In defiance of the will of Parliament, Charles married the French Catholic. Charles reinstated outdated taxes and laws without the consent of Parliament. He banished them in 1629 after the "Parliament" objected. Until 1640, Charles governed without a House; this period is known as the "Eleven Years Dictatorship." A civil war broke out after Charles tried the five leaders of the Parliament but was unable to capture them. In 1646, Charles finally ceded. In the year 1648, he battled to overturn Parliament once more during the Second Civil War. He was tried by Parliament for fraud, and in 1649 he was put to death.
  • co-reigning with Mary II (r. 1689-94). After the Glorious Revolution, he was crowned king, ensuring the triumph of Parliament and the Protestant cause. William III led the charge in foreign politics against Louis XIV's aspirations.
  • From February 6 until his burial in the glorious Revolution of 1688, "James II" reigned as James II and King of Scotland as James VII. He was also "King of England & Ireland." As the last Christian royal ruler of England, Scotland, and Ireland, his reign is best remembered today for his opposition to religious equality. Even so, it also recognized the "right of the divine" and biblical values, and its overthrow ended a century of civil and political conflict by reaffirming Parliament's supremacy over the Monarchy.
