2 nov 1688 - Glorious Revolution
Description:
The Glorious Revolution was the exchange of power from James II of England to William and Mary of the Netherlands. It was glorious because there was zero bloodshed; Parliament sent a letter to the Netherlands that invited William and Mary to rule England. Since James II knew no one would stop William and Mary from taking the throne from him, he peacefully stepped away and gave up the throne.
