What did Oliver Cromwell do to the Rump Parliament and when and why did he do what he did?

Oliver Cromwell stacked parliament with people he could influence and intimidated those who did not support him into staying away. The parliament was meeting to decide whether or not to execute Charles 1 of England. They decided to do so. I read somewhere that the parliament of the day, which supported Cromwell, included 21 of his own relatives. Unfortunately I cannot locate the reference.


Why did englands citizens restore the monarchy after the rule of Oliver Cromwell?

Oliver Cromwell took control of England's government and placed himself as Lord Protector of England after the monarchy was abolished. However, citizens were frustrated by continuing instability in England. Many citizens also disliked Cromwell's Puritan ideas. Even though Cromwell had the support of the military, his son could not gain the people's favor after Cromwell died. England restored the monarchy and offered the throne to Charles II.
