Road to Revolution

Question 1 • 8th Grade US History & Geography A

How did the Glorious Revolution influence the American colonists?

Answer
A
The colonies helped overthrow King James II.
B
They saw that an unjust leader could and should be overthrown.
C
Colonists no longer had a king and queen.

Explanation

The Glorious Revolution of 1688–1689 forced King James II from power and replaced him with William and Mary, limiting royal authority. American colonists learned from this example that a ruler who acted unjustly could be resisted and removed. The colonies did not help overthrow James II, and they continued to recognize a monarch afterward.
