#14 Unreal Oranje | The Glorious Revolution [Part 1]

📜 Episode Summary:

Episode fourteen. The Glorious Revolution—arguably the most pivotal moment in British and Dutch history. From the fallout of the English Civil War to the rise of William of Orange, we explore how religion, monarchy, and geopolitics collided in 17th-century Europe. You’ll learn why William’s Dutch fleet landed in Devon, how he used PR and pamphlets to take power without bloodshed, and why this so-called “revolution” might actually have been an invasion. We trace the rise of parliamentary democracy, the founding of the Bank of England, and how this episode set the stage for the British Empire and Enlightenment thought. Was it truly glorious? Or just politically convenient branding? Tune in for part one of this two-part historical deep dive.
