The English Restoration began in 1660 with the restoration of the Stuart Monarch Charles II to the English throne, after the Interregnum period dominated by Oliver Cromwell. This period is referred to as a new age because it was totally opposite of the rule of Cromwell, who shut down theatres and anything that was considered immoral. Charles II's reign is marked by looseness and immorality as well as progressive ideas, landmarks in science and poetry, which were supported by Charles with such institutions as the Royal Society.
