He became (1698) elector of Hanover, fought in the War of the Spanish Succession, and in 1714 succeeded Queen Anne under the provisions of the Act of Settlement , becoming the first British sovereign of the house of Hanover . He was personally unpopular in England because of his German manners, his German mistresses (see Schulenburg, Ehrengard Melusina von der, duchess of Kendal ), his treatment of his divorced wife, Sophia Dorothea , and his inability to speak English. George's dual role as elector of Hanover and king of England also raised problems; he spent much of his time in Hanover and was widely (although unjustly) believed to be indifferent to English affairs. Yet, despite the uprising of the Jacobites in 1715, his crown was never in danger, for he stood to Englishmen as the guarantee of the "revolution settlement" against a return of the Roman Catholic Stuarts. George's succession brought the Whigs to power, and the early years of his reign saw constant maneuvering for power among his ministers : the 1st Earl

James II's youngest daughter was Anne, whose last surviving child, princess Anne did not survive. Thus, there was no direct successor to the throne. London was afraid that unless there was a formal, political union with Scotland firmly in place, the country might choose James Edward Stuart, Anne's exiled Catholic half-brother, instead of a new Protestant king from Hanover. Parliament had passed the Act of Settlement in 1701 to ensure that Anne's heir was to be the Electress Sophia of Hanover, granddaughter of James I. Thus, when William died in 1702, Queen Anne succeeded him; on his deathbed, he recommended a union with Scotland. In 1703, the Scottish Parliament passed an Act of Security that provided for a Protestant Stuart succession upon Anne's death, unless the Scottish government was freed from "English or any foreign influence." The English Parliament responded with an Alien's Act that prohibited all Scottish imports to England unless the Scots accepted the Hanoverian succession. The Scots reluctantly succumbed in order to gain the advantage of free trade with the new British common market. In 1707, the Act of Union cemented what had been a growing interdependence between the two countries.

Leaving out the position of the prime minister and the monarchy, this text deals with Britain's two basic constitutional principles of rule of law and the sovereignty of parliament. This particular British form of Parliamentarianism in which powers cross is often referred to as the "Westminster model". Another section summarizes the central characteristics of this model and addresses the most common criticisms. to the "Westminster model" section The political system in Great Britain - often falsely referred to as England - features many unique aspects. The problems begin with the territorial structure of the "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland" as it is known officially. The following illustration provides an overview of this structure: The Queen of England is the head of state of the United Kingdom. Citizens share British nationality.

Simon Schama
A History of Britain, Volume II: The Wars of the British 1603-1776
from the publisher:
The second volume of Simon Schama's A History of Britain brings the histories of Britain's civil wars full of blighted idealism, shocking carnage, and unexpected outcomes startlingly to life. These conflicts were fought unsparingly between the nations of the islands Ireland, England, and Scotland and between parliament and the crown. Shattering the illusion of a "united kingdom," they cost hundreds of thousands of lives: a greater proportion of the population than died in the First World War. When religious passion gave way to the equally consuming passion for profits, it became possible for the pieces of Britain to come together as the spectacularly successful business enterprise of "Britannia Incorporated." And in a few generations that business state expanded in a dizzying process that transformed what had been an obscure, off-shore footnote to Europe's great powers into the main event the most powerful empire in the world. Yet somehow, it was the "wrong empire." The British considered it a bastion of liberty, yet it was based on military force and the enslavement of hundreds of thousands of Africans. In America, the emptiness of British claims to protect "freedom" was thrown back into the teeth of colonial governors and redcoat soldiers, while the likes of Sam Adams and George Washington inherited the mantle of Cromwell.

Inigo Jones is too often described in simple term as Britain's first great Palladian architect, where the influences he absorbed were more wide ranging, and were certainly complex. It was Palladio's heir in northern Italy, Vincenzo Scamozzi, whoJones met on his Italian travels. and he was no promoter of his master. In an, case, Jones's education in architecture was broadly based, and as well as Palladio's I quattro libri he owned books on architecture by Serlio, Alberti, and Vitruvius. These he annotated with detailed comments which reflect his own observations and the cultural preoccupations inherited from the Elizabethan age by the Stuart court. It is the potent mix of the Roman Classical building tradition, Neoplatonism, monarchy and the Protestant Church in the newly unified Great Britain, which provided Jones with his opportunities, as Vaughan Hart describes so well in his excellent book.

History
Charles I rules England from 1625-1649. He was the first monarch to be beheaded. Disapproved of the Puritans and the House of Commons. Biggest mistake was changing the Presbyterian Church in Scotland to make it like the Anglican Church in England. Beheaded for counts of treason for breaking into the House of Commons. Charles II rules from 1660-1688. He was a liked Stuart monarch. He led England through the Stuart Restoration of 1660-1688. Charles decides that England will side with France during the Dutch War of 1672-1679. James II, brother of Charles II rules from 1685-1689.

59. Part IV, Bancroft's Plea For The Constitution Of The United States

http://www.lexrex.com/enlightened/bancroft/part_four.htm
PART IV. THE CONSTITUTION IN THE HOUSE OF ITS GUARDIANS. And yet the court which was set apart to be the keystone of the constitution insists that "the power of congress to emit bills of credit is now clearly established by decisions." In the century which elapsed between the establishment of the British constitution in 1688 and the establishment of the constitution of the United States of America in 1788, Great Britain never once "impressed" upon bills of its government the quality of being a legal tender in the payment of private debts; it never claimed the right to do so, and never performed an act which implied such a claim. Nor in all that time did any British writer on political economy, Locke or Adam Smith, teach that it would be otherwise than fraudulent or unjust to do so; nor did Great Britain give authority to any private person or to any corporation to issue bills or notes which should be a legal tender in payment of private debts. When England, unhappily for herself and for the world, entered upon its long career of ineffectual war to crush the rising efforts of liberty on the continent of Europe, the privy council of England authorized the bank of England to suspend specie payments, thus degrading the bills of the bank and ultimately introducing a long period of paper money. In reply to the reproaches of the friends of European freedom in parliament, Pitt acknowledged the undoubted illegality of the order, declaring that it could be justified only by the most urgent necessity; and the parliament of England, being then mainly in the hands of an aristocracy, hostile to reforms and progress in liberty, accepted the illegal order, in its zeal to crush the invincible strivings for constitutional liberty on the continent of Europe.
