Answer:

A. True.

Explanation:

It´s also called the Bloodless Revolution or the Revolution of 1688. King James II was deposed and his daughter Mary II and her husband William III , prince of Orange and ruler of The Netherlands, acceded to the English throne. James, a Catholic, had followed impopular policies in Protestant-dominated England. There was growing discontent. The change was practically bloodless. William was concerned by the advance and consolidation of the power of France, ruled by the Sun King, Louis XIV.
