Round 4: Tossup 11

This event caused the “nonjuring schism” when several bishops refused to swear an oath. It’s not related to Spain, but a “Protestant Wind” during this event forced a navy (-5[1])to stay in port. Edmund Andros (-5[1])was overthrown after news of this event reached Boston. (-5[1])Prior to this event, (-5[1])the birth of a so-called “warming-pan baby” spurred the Immortal Seven to send a letter (10[1])to a stadtholder (10[1])(“SHTAT-holder”). Supporters of this event won the Battle of the Boyne, after (10[1])which a king fled to France. (10[1])The Jacobites tried to reverse this event, (-5[1])after (10[1])which the Dutch (-5[1])Prince of Orange signed the English Bill of Rights. For 10 points, name this event where James II (10[1])of England was peacefully deposed by William and Mary. ■END■ (10[5])
