    The English Civil Wars weakened the role of the monarchy and strengthened the rights and power of the Parliament. England even saw a long time without a king, the beheading of a king, and the rule of Oliver Cromwell. Restoration occurred but a debilitated crown took over.

    It also meant the consolidation of Protestantism - which in turn also reinforced Protestantism in the colonies - as a new king, William of Orange, was a Protestant. A major document was produced that had enormous impact for English politics and for subjects: the Bill of Rights, which enhanced Parliament's powers and guaranteed many individual rights.
