Is this sentence a Independent Clause

The rulers were worshipped. And then the depend clause would be after they died?
Is this correct?

1 answer

No. "after they died" is a prepositional phrase, in this case an adverb phrase, modifying "were worshipped". There is no dependent clause in this sentence.
