The Parliament was a governing body in England that was started in 1066. Up until the Glorious Revolution in 1688, it had limited power because of the monarchy, and constantly battled for power. In 1688 it published the Petition of Rights, the Grand Remonstrance, and overthrew King Charles I. From then on it had demonstrated its power to the king and grew in power. It made most of the legislative decisions, represented a good majority of the English people and made England one of the most advanced governmental bodies of its time.
