When was the Bill of Rights enacted?? 30

After the restoration of the Stuart dynasty in 1660, they began to act perversely, not only vigorously suppressing the opposition, trying to restore the king's centralized power, but also trying to restore Catholicism in England, which aroused the opposition of the English Whigs and some Tories at that time, and the contradictions gradually intensified. It just so happened that the second wife of the Roman Catholic James II gave birth to a son, and the future king would surely be a Catholic in the future! Thus, it was thought that after the death of James II, the hopes of his Protestant daughter would succeed to the throne were dashed, and it was decided to take action.

Several prominent figures, including the Bishop of London, sent a secret letter to Mary, the daughter of the Protestant James II, and her son-in-law, William, in the Netherlands, inviting them to come to England to protect "religion, liberty, and property" in England. For William, his main concern was how to fight for the succession to the English throne for his wife and himself, and he also accepted the invitation because he believed that his entry into England would prevent England from forming an alliance with France against the Netherlands. But this time the English learned from the past, in order to avoid the previous experience of inviting the restoration of the Stuart dynasty in that year (1660), they decided to limit the power of the king in the form of law and guarantee their own power, so in the plenary session of the upper and lower houses of parliament, a "declaration of rights" was proposed to William and Mary, requiring that the king could not stop the effect of the law without the consent of the parliament in the future, and that no tax could be levied without the consent of the parliament, and that no Catholic could serve as the king of England in the future. No king can marry a Roman Catholic, etc.

William accepted these demands, namely the English throne, for William III. In October 1689, Parliament adopted the Declaration of Rights and enacted it into law, the Bill of Rights

The temporal effects of the enactment of the Bill of Rights limited royal power. In 1689, the British promulgated the "Bill of Rights" to limit the royal power, and the direct impact was to limit the royal power, and the parliamentary power gradually exceeded the king's power, and the king gradually became in a position of unification and unbalanced governance, and the British constitutional monarchy was established.
