King Charles I was executed because he was a Catholic king and refused to call parliament into session. The English people did not want a Catholic state but a Protestant state and were angered by Charles' hike in taxes and his distancing of parliament.
Charles wanted to raise taxes but parliament didn't and then he dissolved parliament for 11 years.
Charles rarely opened Parliament, and they were angry with him for supporting Louis IX claim to the French throne. When Charles did open parliament he asked for money.

Charles I did not want to work with a Parliament, because the Parliament has the final say with matters such as laws. Charles I could propose a new law, but the Parliament can either accept it, or reject it.Charles didn't want a Parliament because he pretty much wanted absolute power. He wanted to make decisions on his own.The English Civil War, which Charles I lost, was Charles vs Parliament (led by Oliver Cromwell). Charles tried raising extra taxes without discussing it with the Parliament. Also, he married a Catholic princess, who influenced his decisions. Many were afraid that Charles would make the Church of England more Catholic. (He's Protestant.)All these problems led to the war, and eventually Charles lost, went into trial, and got beheaded.
