1 июл 1689 г. - Maryland Uprising

Описание:

A rebellion of Puritans spurred by the Glorious Revolution overthrew the colony's proprietary government. Protestants feared that the new King James II was too pro-Catholic, and began to arm themselves to take over the colony. In 1689, encouraged by the new pro-Protestant King William III, Colonel John Coode led several hundred Puritans against Catholic planter Colonel Henry Darnell, forcing him to surrender. Coode established a new government banning Catholicism and from Catholics holding office.
