Life in the United Kingdom Practice Test

The key idea is dating events by the century. The Glorious Revolution happened in 1688, which sits in the 17th century (the years 1601–1700). The 18th century starts in 1701, so 1688 isn’t in the 18th. This event is famous for the change in rulers—William III and Mary II—toward a constitutional framework, with the Bill of Rights established shortly after. So, the correct century is the 17th.
