In the 1600s, England experienced a tumultuous period of political change, characterized by the struggle between monarchy and parliamentary authority. Initially, it was a constitutional monarchy under King James I, who ruled with the belief in the divine right of kings. This tension culminated in the English Civil War (1642-1651), leading to the temporary establishment of a Commonwealth under Oliver Cromwell. By the end of the century, the Glorious Revolution of 1688 established a constitutional monarchy, significantly limiting the powers of the monarch.
