Olivia Cromwell, as Lord Protector of England from 1653 to 1658, led a government known as the Protectorate. This regime was characterized by a republican form of governance that followed the English Civil War and the execution of King Charles I. Cromwell sought to establish a stable and godly rule, emphasizing Puritan values and military strength, while navigating tensions between various factions, including Royalists and Parliamentarians. His government ultimately aimed to balance authority with a degree of religious and civil liberty, though it faced significant challenges and opposition.

The question of whether or not Cromwell was breaking the law when he attacked Drogheda is difficult to answer. Cromwell was a rebel who had overthrown the Monarchy. He had illegally seized the government of England. He had also illegally seized the government of the Pale of Ireland which included Drogheda. Still, he controlled the lawful government of that area at the time. Arthur Ashton, the leader of the Irish rebels at Drogheda, refused to recognize Cromwell as the lawful ruler. He sided with those wanting to restore the monarchy to Ireland. He decided to fight to the death rather than recognize Cromwell. Cromwell had broken the law when he killed King Charles I and seized power. Ashton broke the law when he rebelled against the ruler, Cromwell, to reinstate the monarchy. Who is guilty in war?
