Detailed explanation-1: -The Glorious Revolution (1688–89) permanently established Parliament as the ruling power of England-and, later, the United Kingdom-representing a shift from an absolute monarchy to a constitutional monarchy.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: The enlightenment influenced the Glorious Revolution by guiding people’s thoughts toward challenging authority and using reason to know right and wrong. Reasoning, skepticism, and individualism are among the major aspects of enlightenment.
