Answer:

Constitutional Monarchy

This is when a monarch/king shares power with another government body. This type of government is still being used by England today.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the 17th century, Monarchs (like James I, Charles I, and others) would always ignore the Parliament when making political decisions. After the English Civil War and Glorious Revolution, William & Mary would take over the throne of England. Before they took the throne, Parliament forced them to sign the English Bill of Rights to share their power. The English Bill of Rights supports Constitutional Monarchy since it forces monarchs to be equal with Parliament.
