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.
