When did the British Monarchy become powerless?

For many scholars the Monarchy in England became powerless, more or less, with the removal of James IInd in 1688. James reigned by Divine Right in many people's minds. He was God's anointed.

He was also King by the law of inheritance and this law affected even the poorest and was well understood! When James fled, a thread was broken on a silver chain, an essenial part of Government was shaken. Later James was followed not by his lawful son, but by his nephew and his daughter, to remain King on a hostile throne, William of Orange had to maintain an Army of some 10,000 men to overaw the English people!

William was a Calvinist. William in turn was followed by another member of the family , the youngest daughter. It certainly weakened the ties between Crown and People.

After Queen Anne died in 1714, she was succeeded by George the First, a boor of a man, who couldn't speak English and was personally distasteful to the people of England . Further he was suspected of murdering his wife's lover and had very little claim to the English throne! Also he was a Lutheran in an Anglican world and fathered a disfunctional family Most people realised that George, especially, was a King of convenience, certain politicians had seized power, and George was a puppet.

There seems to have been a tacit agreement that the Hannover Family were socially at the top while real power remained with the Junta. The Devonshire Family and friends. Modern scholars think or claim that England has been a republic since the so-called Glorious Revolution.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
