- A constitutional monarchy was established
- The Creation of the Bill of Rights of 1689
Explanation:
The Glorious Revolution (1688-1689) was a political event that saw the King James II of England being overthrown in a mostly bloodless revolution, being replaced by William III of Orange and Mary II of England. James II, himself a Catholic, had to face with strong anti-Catholic sentiments in the British isles. As the situation became more and more heated, his attempts to control it eroded his political legitimacy. William of Orange, the leader of the Dutch Republic and a Protestant, gathered a powerful fleet that invaded the British isles and marched on London. As the English army failed to put any resistance and even defected to the Protestant invaders, James II was forced to flee. A specially convened Parliament assembled in 1689 deposed James II and declared William III and Mary II the legitimate rulers England, Scotland and Ireland. Later that same year, the Parliament passed the Bill of Rights of 1689 which, among other things, signalled the transformation of the British crown from an absolute monarchy into a constitutional monarchy. Severely curtailing the power of the monarch, many of the most important decisions could no longer be taken by the monarch without Parliament's approval, like approving taxes, suspending laws, or summoning an army. With some modifications, the Bill of Rights is still in force in Britain and other countries part of the Commonwealth.
Meiji was the Japanese ruler who called his reign the "Enlightened Rule." He was the 122nd Emperor of Japan, and his real name is Mutsuhito, so I'm not sure which answer is the correct one.
Akhenaton was the first pharaoh to start a monotheistic religion.
Answer:
The Catholic Church asked people to help their fellow Christians, those who were still alive and under persecution by the Muslim forces in the Holy Land, an plenary indulgence if they went on the Crusade to extend mercy on their fellow Christians.
What most people do not understand is that an indulgence had nothing to do with forgiveness of sins. Indulgences have been part of the Christian Church since the very early centuries when people asked others who were about to be killed by the Romans for their prayers.
Since then the theology of indulgences has not changed at all, although due to the unfortunate misunderstanding of Martin Luther, indulgences have been maligned and misunderstood since that time.
An indulgence can ONLY be gained by someone who is in a state of grace - all their sins forgiven already. NO ONE in a state of sin can earn an indulgence - not possible. An indulgence is a prayer of the Church or the saints for the remission of temporal punishment due for already forgiven sin. Thus it would be time off in purgatory, no one in a state of sin could earn an indulgence nor “earn” heaven - such an idea is atrocious and heresy.
