Answer 1

The statement that best completes the diagram is A. Limits are placed on the power of the English monarchy.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that best completes the diagram is A. Limits are placed on the power of the English monarchy.

During the reign of James II, his support for Catholicism led to anger from Parliament and fears of the imposition of a Catholic absolute monarchy. In response, English Protestants encouraged William of Orange to seize control of England, resulting in the Glorious Revolution of 1688-1689. This event led to limits being placed on the power of the English monarchy, ensuring that it could not be absolute.
