In the Glorious Revolution, there was no bloodshed or violence. It was when parliament invited King William and Mary of Orange over from Holland to rule England if they signed the Bill of Rights and agreed to rule peacefully and fairly and they did.

The French Revolution was one of the bloodiest revolutions of all time. Thousands of people were guillotined and it was started because the lower class people of France (about 75%) hated the monarchs who were doing nothing for them.

To call it a bloodless revolution would of course be a gross falsification of real world history: Killicranie yielded 2,600 casualties, Dunkeld produced at least a thousand and in Ireland's Williamite War the Battle of the Boyne had 2,250 casualties and the Siege of Derry may have produced as many as 10,000 dead depending on who is to be believed. (Strangely, the battles with religious underpinnings seem to produce the most flagrant of liars. Crusader data bases are particularly suspect. Terms like "the Massacre at XYZ" must be cross checked, and then double checked.)
