Best Answer

The Glorious Revolution of 1688 was not a challenge against the English monarchy but a challenge against a catholic monarch. The English people were protestant and did not want to suffer through anymore religious wars. James II's daughter Mary was protestant, however he took married a catholic woman who bore a catholic son. Therefore the English people invited Mary and her husband William of Orange to overthrow James II and take the English throne.
