Question

请大家帮我翻译一下这一段英文短文？

In 1685, Charles II died, and because he had no legitimate children,
hewas succeeded as King by his brother, James II. James showed little un
derstanding of, or regard for, Englishtraditions or sensibilities. He did
one valuable thing for his country, andhe did that before he became
King. As Duke of York[1] andcommander of the Navy, he took the colony
of New Netherlands away from the Dutchduring a war with Holland over
trade. He thus joined together England's northern and southernpossessions
in the New World and greatly increasedher wealth. The Dutch colony's
seaport town of New Amsterdam was renamedin his honor: New York
City.
As King, however, James II ruled inopen defiance of English tradition.
Hewas an enemy to representative government and believed in the Divine
Right of Kings. Moreover, as a Catholiche wished to restore that faith as
the state religion in England. In lessthan two years, for this and other reasons
, he had aroused the entire country andScotland against him. Aware of
the feelings growing against him andmindful of his father's fate, James fled
to France in 1688. The general feeling amongthe English was one of relief
atlosing so unsatisfactory a King.
