- QUIET PEASANTS!!!
- Oh no!! Not again!
- Since Charles I had the same Divine Right of Kings idea, Parliament put together a petition of power, (which is to limit his power) but Charles ignores it anyways. So the Civil War begins!!! Its the Parliament (Roundheads), against the King (cavaliers).
- Welcome!
- Parliament wins. Oliver Cromwell is the new leader for Parliament Army. Parliament is purged of King supporters and Charles is beheaded and monarchy has been abolished. Cromwell has died and the Army restores the monarchy. Which leads to Charles II as leader and the start of the Revolution.
