Solution
The correct option is A William and Mary
The Glorious Revolution of 1688-1689 replaced the reigning king, James II, with the joint monarchy of his protestant daughter Mary and her Dutch husband, William of Orange. It was the keystone of the Whig (those opposed to a Catholic succession) history of Britain. Hence, Option A is correct. Among the rest, James II was dethroned, Louis and Mary were the monarchs of France before the French Revolution and Mary I of Tudor was the first queen of England. Hence, these are incorrect.
