“As for us BRITONS, thank Heaven, we have a better sense of Government deliver’d us from our Ancestors.”
Anthony Ashley-Cooper, Sensus Communis (1709)
The end of the English Stuart dynasty was marked by monarchies of William and Mary, and that of Queen Anne. Starting with the 1689 Revolutionary Settlement and ending with imminence of Jacobite rebellion in 1714, we see an era of rapid political change that laid the foundation for future world empire.
