James II of England sought to gain absolute rule by promoting policies that favored Catholicism and circumventing Parliament's authority. He appointed Catholics to high offices, issued the Declaration of Indulgence to grant religious freedom, and dissolved Parliament when it opposed his initiatives. His attempts to centralize power and diminish the influence of traditional institutions ultimately led to his downfall and the Glorious Revolution of 1688, which established constitutional monarchy in England.
