After Oliver Cromwell became the Lord Protector he banned many things, such as Christmas, working on Sundays, the Christmas turkey, football and dancing round the maypole, just because of his 'puritan' belief. He also closed parliament, and took away 50 MP's that he didn't like. Also, in 1653 Cromwell chose 140 new MP's who he know would support his views.

He also lived life as King, and many saw him as King. He gave radical orders.
