Yes, Charles I's relationship with Parliament significantly contributed to the English Civil War. His attempts to govern without Parliament, coupled with his belief in the divine right of kings, created deep tensions. Key issues, such as taxation and religious reforms, further alienated Parliament and its supporters. These conflicts ultimately escalated into armed confrontation, leading to the Civil War.
During the English Civil War (1642-1651), the supporters of Parliament were generally known as 'Roundheads,' as distinct from the names, 'Cavalier' and 'Royalist,' which were often applied to supporters of the King's side of the war. 'Roundheads' derived from the very short hair of these persons, as the usual style of the age (and of the King's supporters) was to have long, flowing hair.
