When James I took the throne in 1603 CE, he established and absolute monarchy. This meant that he had complete control and Parliament had to defer to him. This style of rule was continued by his son Charles I. Charles I's refusal to call Parliament into session and his increase in royal taxes led to his execution in 1649. After his death Oliver Cromwell became the Lord Protector of England, but Parliament had control over social, religious and legal issues. After his death in 1658, Parliament invited Charles II to return to England on the condition that Parliament remain in control he Charles allow Protestantism to be the main religion in England. After Charles death James II took the throne, he had two Protestant daughters but remarried a Catholic and had a Catholic son. In 1688, parliament invited his oldest daughter Mary and her husband William to overthrow James. This revolution was called the Glorious Revolution, a Bill of Rights was written and Parliament remained powerful and free from royal influence.
The direct effects of the English Revolution during the 17th century was that England was left a divided nation after Oliver Cromwell's death. The Parliament was parted into the Presbyterians and the Independents, which was rather weak in their power of governance.Jumping back in time, after the execution of Charles I, England became a commonwealth (The Protectorate) for a short period of time while Cromwell (Lord Protector) was in power. Although he rejected the offer of the crown thus leaving England without a monarch, the ways of politics were not radically different.Cromwell's death ended the times of the republican England, and with his son Richard almost powerless to govern, Charles II was brought back to England, whom was an "enlightened king", and governed under a parliamentary monarchy.All in all, the English Revolution abolished the divine rights of the king for a while, but in the end the effect that remained was that the Parliament's gaining of power. Therefore, this civil war turned England's table of politics about 20 degrees towards the left, and was the very beginning of the nowadays democracy.
The Revolution of 1800 was not an actual revolution, however, the election acted as a realignment of American politics. Jefferson defeated John Adams in the presidential election that year.

England was involved in two wars with Holland ( 1665-1667 and 1672-1674 ) during his reign.

After his death Parliament acknowledged his brother James as the next king, but his pro-Catholic and pro-French politics led to the Glorious Revolution 1688.
The Glorious Revolution was the first time the colonies came together as a community of people with the same idea. This was very new to happen and influenced the political culture.
The Glorious Revolution of 1688 was the result of the birth of James II's catholic son. The English people were protestant and did not want a catholic ruler. Therefore they invited James II's protestant daughter, Mary and her husband William of Orange to raid England and overthrow James II. When James II heard about the army marching towards him, he fled to France with his wife and son. As a result no blood was spilled and the revolution was named the Glorious Revolution.
