CIVIL WAR

1642 - 1660

What is the english civil war

The English Civil War is the period in the history of the Kingdom of England that goes from 1642 to 1660 (when monarchy was restored)

English Civil War

What happened in the english civil war

The result was threefold: - the trial and execution of Charles I (1649); - the exile of his son Charles II -the replacement of the English monarchy by the Commonwealth

What was the main cause of the English Civil War?

A key factor which led to the outbreak of the Civil War was King Charles and his lack of money. Parliament refused to grant King Charles enough money to finance military campaigns against Spain and France. So Charles dismissed Parliament

What were the stages of the english civil war

PhasesKingdom of Charles I (1625-1649) First English Civil War (1642-1645) Second English Civil War (1648-1649) Third English Civil War (1649-1651) Cromwell Protectorate (1653-1659) Restoration of the Stuarts (1660-1688)

ROYALISTS OR CAVALIERS

PARLAMENTARIANS OR ROUNDHEADS

They supported the King
They were led by OLIVER CROMWELL and supported the Parliament
They had short hair and simply clothes
They had long hair, colorful and elaborate clothes
They were people from London, the ports, the navy, the NEW gentry, small landowners and Puritans
They were lord, the gentry and members of the Church of England
They had foot soldiers but more money. They got stronger and were called IRONSIDES
They had a more experienced army but no money

He followed a mercantilist policy and reorganised the Navy. He defeated the Dutch and the Spanish (and so opening trade with the Carribean)

1649

King Charles was executed

England became a Republic known as the COMMONWEALTH. 1653: Cromwell was appointed Lord Protector

Domestic policies: taxes were high because of wars - his reforms were too oppressive

Cromwell dies but his son was too weak so the army restored the Houses of the Parliament and called Charles II back from his exile.

Without the Church and the Crown there was an explosion of extremist ideas. Cromwell was a military dictator and a Puritan

1660 - Monarchy was restored

thank you!
