Yes, during the Restoration period of Charles II (1660-1685), there was a significant divide in social classes in England. The monarchy and the aristocracy enjoyed immense wealth and privilege, while the lower classes faced economic hardships and limited rights. This period also saw the rise of a wealthy merchant class, which began to challenge traditional social hierarchies. The stark contrasts between the opulence of the elite and the struggles of the common people highlighted societal inequalities.
The only colony founded during the Restoration regime of Charles II was the Province of Carolina. It was granted to eight English nobles by King Charles II in 1663, and the colony was later divided into North and South Carolina.
During the English Restoration, Parliament was initially dissolved in 1660 but was later reassembled with the Convention Parliament, which played a crucial role in restoring Charles II to the throne. This assembly facilitated the transition from the Commonwealth period back to monarchy, marking the end of the Interregnum. The restoration of Parliament was essential for legitimizing Charles II's reign and reestablishing the governance framework of England.

It was the only interregnum since 1066 and it was called the Commonwealth. Cromwell declared himself Protector of the Realm. On his death, the title passed to his son Richard (Tumbledown Dick) who was clearly incapable of the job, and retired abroad. King Charles II returned to London in 1660, and the public were glad to see him back.
Yes, Oliver Cromwell ruled before Charles II. Cromwell served as the Lord Protector of the Commonwealth of England, Scotland, and Ireland from 1653 until his death in 1658. After Cromwell's death, the monarchy was restored in 1660, leading to the reign of Charles II. Thus, Cromwell's rule occurred during the interregnum between the execution of Charles I and the restoration of the monarchy with Charles II.
