-Historians have debated for years about Polynesian people and their sailing.Despite traveling over the vast Pacific Ocean and not being able to navigateusing the land (because of their distance from it, they could not follow the shoreline) The Polynesians left no written records on how they navigated, andhistorians debate over whether they were actually able to navigate or whetherthey just got lost and found their way through the chain of Hawaiian islands, eventhough some were over 2000 miles away from their home ports. Others say thatpeoples from the Americas settled there instead of the Polynesians, however thenative language has ties to Malaysia, the Pacific west, and the Asian continent,disproving this theory. -In 1976, a Polynesian crew proved that it was possible to navigate the Pacificwaters using only observations of stars, currents, and land.…

It could be argued that George purposely used his position on the Privy Council and his ‘good looks’ to gain his position to Charles’ predecessor, as a ‘secret Catholic’. This could account for his ill advice towards both kings. It is known fact that George’s mother was Catholic who selected his wife, Katherine, who was a ‘strict Roman Catholic’ herself. Therefore, it does arguably raise suspicion towards George’s true intentions of seeking the affection and attention of the kings. During this era, Protestantism strived; Catholicism was hated amongst the realm.…

James VII was a Catholic, so he wished to promote the Catholic minority in his kingdoms. Since the Restoration in 1660, the Church of Scotland had been Episcopalian. The Church was unpopular in Scotland and depended on royal support. After his accession in 1685, James inflicted serious damage on the Church. Prior to the meeting of parliament in 1686, James deprived the Episcopalian opponents of Catholic promotion of their bishoprics. The king’s treatment of the bishops continued patterns of earlier anticlerical policy.3 James also made it clear that he wished for Catholics to have freedom to practice their religion. He was determined to be able to employ them in military and civil offices. James was aiming for more than just toleration, he intended to establish Catholics as equal to…
Before the Glorious Revolution, the people of England felt restless and held down by unacceptable restrictions in society and religion by James II. In 1685 James II, son of Charles I and brother of Charles II, ascended to the throne. During this time, there was great tension between the Catholics and Protestants, and James II happened to be Catholic. The citizens of England began to feel restricted when James II issued his father’s Declaration of Indulgence, which allowed Catholics and non-Anglicans freedom.
