Britain did have it's own 'revolution' in the Civil War, but unlike the continental monarchies, Britain had a powerful tradition of representative assemblies, whose consent was required for raising taxes and enacting laws. The provincial gentry, educated in laws schools and universities, was not dependent on royal service or the aristocracy -- it was capable of generating wealth from trade -- and knew how to control their social environment. It was the gentry who filled the positions of Justices Of The Peace and seats in the House Of Commons. So, in order to govern the country, the king needed the support of the gentry, and their loyalty to him was conditional. There was also no standing army.
