The Stuart line started with James VI of Scotland became James I of England after Elizabeth Tudor died. James was an absolute ruler. He was followed by Charles I. The Stuarts were Catholic and Henry Tudor had started the Anglican Church. Religious unrest happened and Charles was executed. Oliver Cromwell took over for eleven years. Then Oliver's son Richard Cromwell tried to rule for nine months. Parliment asked Charles II to come back in 1660. Then James II, the younger brother of Charles II took the throne. He was unpopular because he was a strong Catholic. After three years, his daughter Mary and her husband William Duke of Orange took the throne and James II was exiled. This was called the Glorious Revolution. Then Anne, the second daughter of James II took the throne and died in 1714. The throne then went to the Hanovarians cousins in what is now Germany.
