William of Orange was invited by a small faction of the nobility. It wasn't like they took a godamned vote in Parliment. The ‘Glorious Revolution’ was an Invasion pure and simple. That is not rewriting history, it is fact. It was a military campaign organized on the continent of Europe using non-English ships. William's fleet, which with about 40,000 men aboard was roughly twice the size of the Spanish Armada – and assembled in a tenth of the time – consisted of 463 ships. Among these were 49 warships of more than twenty cannon (eight could count as third rates of 60–68 cannon, nine were frigates), 28 galliots, nine fireships, 76 fluyts to carry the soldiers, 120 small transports to carry five thousand horses, about seventy supply vessels and sixty fishing vessels serving as landing craft.
To say that this was not an invasion is idiotic. They didn't use all this ships, weapons, and men to bring flowers and chocolates to the English. The size and power of the invasion force led the English to roll on their backs like whipped dogs. The Dutch stuck it to the English and gave it to them real good.
You claim that I am rewriting history when you ignore the salient, obvious, and irrefutable facts available to anyone with the curiosity to read.
LOL have it your way, but tell me what was the name of the great battle of the conquering army against the redcoats? You say there was no battle?
The fact is King James II could not flee the country fast enough from his own people.
