[edit] Information

Monarchy 3 recounts the riveting saga of the British royal family, and charts the political and ideological history behind the emergence of England's unique form of government, a constitutional monarchy. The crown of England, the oldest surviving political institution in Europe, has undergone extraordinary changes in the past few centuries that are chronicled by Monarchy 3 in fascinating detail.

[edit] Return of the King

Starting in 1660 with the return from exile of King Charles II. By aligning his throne with Catholic France and Protestant Parliament, Charles’s reign restored the authority of the English crown and laid the foundation of the world’s first modern state.

[edit] The Glorious Revolution

Looking at the "Bloodless Revolution" of 1688, the Parliament-devised plot to overthrow England's last Roman Catholic King, James II, and replace him with his Dutch Protestant son-in-law William of Orange.

[edit] Rule Britannia

In just 25 years after the Glorious Revolution of 1688, England was transformed from an insignificant minor state to the greatest power in Europe. Along the way she became known under a new name to match her swelling status: Great Britain.

[edit] Empire

In 1714, an obscure German Prince was crowned King George I of Great Britain, signalling the beginning of a new political era that saw the rise of the new role of Prime Minister, and established the pattern of political modernity we are familiar with today.

[edit] Survival

When, in 1789, the Bastille prison in Paris was stormed and the French Revolution began, few in Britain - least of all King George III, who was recovering from one of his bouts of madness - thought that it would lead to a cataclysmic war with France.
