The monarch (William III and then Anne I) still was primarily in charge, but Parliament now had an enhanced role, and the monarch could not govern completely alone. The English Bill of Rights was passed during this time. (It should be added, though, that Parliament was much more of an aristocratic than a democratic institution at this time.) From 1714 onward, when the German-speaking George I took the throne, Parliament began to surpass the monarch in importance.
