James II was deposed during the Glorious Revolution of 1688 primarily due to his unpopular policies and his attempts to promote Catholicism in a predominantly Protestant England. His perceived disregard for parliamentary authority and the fear of a Catholic dynasty led to widespread opposition. The situation escalated when William of Orange was invited to invade England, resulting in James fleeing the country. His abdication effectively ended his reign and marked the beginning of constitutional monarchy in England.
