The major event that resulted in the destruction of the Dominion of New England was the Glorious Revolution of 1688 in England. This political upheaval led to the overthrow of King James II and the installation of William and Mary as co-monarchs. In the colonies, news of this revolution inspired resistance against the Dominion's unpopular governor, Sir Edmund Andros, ultimately leading to his arrest and the dissolution of the Dominion in 1689.

The Crown dealt the last blow to the "Citty upon a Hill" idea by establishing religious toleration in Massachusetts. The leaders of the colony could no longer exile those that disagreed with their religious beliefs.
