Shortly after becoming King, Charles I took his nation to war against Spain and France. Argumentative with the British House of Commons, in 1629, Charles dissolved Parliament for 11 years. Later, Charles sparked 2 civil wars. Parliament reestablished itself in in 1640. King Charles I was later charged with treason for waging war on Parliament and subsequently executed. He was public beheaded on January 30th, 1649. He was viewed both as a martyr by his allies and a tyrant by his opponents.
