Parliament
France had a much stronger monarchy than England.
The end of absolutism in England was influenced by several key factors: the Glorious Revolution of 1688, which established a constitutional monarchy; the increasing power of Parliament, particularly through the development of political parties and the assertion of its authority over taxation and governance; the rise of Enlightenment ideas that promoted individual rights and limited government; and social changes, including the growth of the middle class, which demanded greater political representation and accountability from the monarchy. These elements collectively shifted power away from the monarchy and laid the foundation for modern democracy in England.
Absolutism in England differed from that in the rest of Europe primarily due to the establishment of constitutional limits on royal power, particularly after the English Civil War and the Glorious Revolution. While monarchs like Louis XIV of France wielded unchecked power, England's monarchy became subject to parliamentary authority, resulting in a constitutional monarchy. Additionally, England experienced significant political and social upheaval that curtailed absolute rule, whereas other European countries, such as Spain and Austria, maintained more centralized and autocratic regimes. This distinction helped to foster a unique political landscape in England that emphasized the rule of law and individual rights.
how did the Magna Carta and the rise of parliament prevent the rise of absolutism in England
Absolutism was only possible in Europe after the sovereigns were able to overcome the local vested power of nobles, through the use of national armies without local agglomeration. However, during the feudal period, English nobles (barons) forced the monarchy to guarantee their legal position with the Magna Carta. As a result, when the English monarchy would finally be militarily capable of asserting absolutism, it was effectively prevented from doing so because of the barons' power in Parliament. Conversely, French, Spanish, Prussian, Austrian, and Russian nobles did not have these protections and lost power as monarchs became more capable of consolidating their power under absolutism.

The Commonwealth was a republican form of government established in England from 1649 to 1660, following the English Civil War and the execution of King Charles I. It aimed to abolish monarchy and promote a more representative system, led by figures like Oliver Cromwell. The Commonwealth ultimately ended with the Restoration in 1660, as political instability, economic difficulties, and a desire for stability led to the public's support for reinstating the monarchy, which aligned with the emerging age of absolutism that favored centralized royal power.
