The Maya were a pre-Columbian people who inhabited the region of Mesoamerica (present-day Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, etc.). They peaked during the period from 250 AD to 900 AD, known as the Classic Period. The Maya are known to have had one of the most sophisticated pre-Columbian civilizations. In addition, they developed large cities and had advanced knowledge in areas such as mathematics. After 900 A.D., the Maya went into decline, and their cities emptied out.
The Maya became well known for having very advanced knowledge in areas such as Astronomy and Mathematics. In the religious field, the Maya were polytheists, that is, they believed in several gods and had human sacrifice as a very important ritualistic practice. These sacrifices were also of considerable political importance to these people.
Politically, they were organized in city-states, which means that the Maya never formed an empire with consolidated borders. The power of kings extended, exclusively, over the domains of their cities and satellite cities, if any. They survived from agriculture, and their main food was corn.

Answer:
Glorious Revolution
To gain a Protestant ruler
The Glorious Revolution was a revolt against the English King, King James II, in the years 1688 and 1689. King James II was a Catholic and this worried most of his Government and people especially when he started granting Catholics greater statuses. They therefore sought to remove him and after they did explicitly forbade the Monarchy from ever being Catholic.
To support a constitutional monarchy
The public mood during the time was that of a monarchy with some checks on its power from Parliament. King James did not seem to want this and dissolved Parliament in 1687 in order to instill a more subservient Parliament.
To protect Parliament's power.
Another reason for the revolt was a desire to protect the powers of Parliament which King James sought to remove. After the revolt ended, Parliament gained more power than it ever had under the reign of William of Orange and Mary (King James's daughter).
American Revolution
To win independence from Britain
The American Revolution occurred in the years 1775 to 1783 and was primarily done by the Colonies in what is now the USA to free themselves from the rule of Britain. This was done as a result of what was seen as unfair Taxation, Economical and other policies imposed on the Colonies by the British.
To create a Republican Government
Another aim of the Revolution was to have a democratic Government that was elected by the people to serve the people not a Monarch in a country thousands of miles away.
