Essentially William of Orange invaded with a massive Dutch naval armada and landed in Torbay, Devon, in November 1688. King James ran away and the English weak sucks surrendered. It wasn't a revolution, it was a conquering.

And you are conveniently leaving out Queen Mary II the daughter of of the deposed King James II.   It's not like King Billy just mustered an army of Dutchmen to take the English crown.   It was taken for one of the natural successors in order to restore the Anglican Church of England to the British crown.

There may be some nuances to the ‘Glorious Revolution’ but the fact is the William of Orange brought a lot of the ‘freaky-deaky’ Dutch with him and it was imposed with Dutch guns and these Dutchmen did quite well in terms of power, prestige, and money.

If that snaky Mittens Romney was forced into hiding with his extended Mormon family in Mexico (great-grandfather Miles Park Romney went there when polygamy was outlawed in Utah) and then invaded America with Mexican troops would you call that a revolution too?

It was a funny sort of conquest when the people who invited the so called conqueror William III presented him with a Bill if Rights binding him to respect the supremacy of Parliament and the limits of his authority, and made it clear to him that he and his wife where king and queen only by permission of Parliament.
