The English Civil War (1642-1651) pitted Parliament against the monarchy, leading to the temporary establishment of a commonwealth under Oliver Cromwell. The subsequent Glorious Revolution of 1688 resulted in the Bill of Rights (1689), which limited the powers of the monarchy and laid the groundwork for constitutional governance.
