C. Who:_ English Protestant leaders wanted to force James II from power and give the throne to his daughter, a
Protestant, and to her Dutch husband,
Confident that the English people would welcome him and that James II would refuse to fight, their
army began to march on London. When James II heard the news, he fled to France.
With almost no bloodshed, Parliament had power once again. Parliament claimed the right to limit the
power of the monarchy, and to have the final say about who could sit on the throne of England. The
bloodless overthrow of King James II became known as the Glorious Revolution.
