Houses of Parliament fourght the monarchy over power. Before a king Charles I could make any decision he wanted without consulting the government who were there to represent the people. So the Parliament reacted and chopped off a few heads so now they work together to make decisions. It was a long long long war but an interesting one :)

Anglican Perspective!

That there was a political struggle between Parliament and King Charles is quite true! That King Charles did indeed lose this set to is also correct

I must add that also, despite having 'represented' the people; the government in general were at the very least conscious of the ammount of poverty in England at the time. And despite using their democratic title as a reason for their victory over the monachy, it seems to me that the civil war was much more of a power stuggle than an ethical war! Eithor way, the people at the time probably didn't benefit drastically from King Charles I demise if not at all. Any thoughts?
