The Parliament emerged victorious in the English Civil War against King Charles I. The conflict, which lasted from 1642 to 1651, ultimately led to the execution of Charles I in 1649 and the establishment of the Commonwealth under Oliver Cromwell. This marked a significant shift in power from the monarchy to Parliament in England.

The English Civil War and who it was affected by?

The English Civil War was between King Charles I, and the British Parliament. It started in 1640. King Charles wanted to change England from Protestant to Roman Catholic. At the time continental Europe was involved in the 30 years war between Protestants and Roman Catholics. Parliament was Protestant and wanted to keep England out of the war. So, the king raised an army and Parliament raised an army. The situation was quite similar to that of the American Civil War with King Charles' situation similar to that of the South and Parliament to that of the North except that they shared the same territory. The nobility sided with the King so Charles had better officers. The common people took up the cause of Parliament so Parliament had more solders. Gradually, the king's officers were killed off. None of equal calibre replaced them. As his solders died, none replaced them. Parliament's officers became more efficient and learned how to win battles. Replacements joined the armies of Parliament. So, the king's armies lost and Parliament won. Oliver Cromwell, Parliament's command in chief, became the ruler of England. King Charles I, lost his head.

What was the immediate outcome of the English Civil War?

The causes of the English Civil war covered a number of years. The reign of Charles 1 had seen a marked deterioration in the relationship between Crown and Parliament. This breakdown may well have occurred as early as 1625 when it became clear to Parliament that Charles was going to allow George Villiers, Duke of Buckingham, to maintain his huge influence on the Crown despite the death of James 1. Therefore, there were long term causes of the war and short term causes that actually sparked off the conflict. Eventually paliament won.

Why did they have a English Civil War?

Because people wanted to have a say in the government. There was a serious conflict between the King (James I and later Charles I) and the English Parliament. There were religious differences too. Many members of Parliament were Puritans, who wanted to purify the Anglican Church, but the kings were Catholics. Both kings tried to rule without Parliament. The only thing that they couldn't do without Parliament was to levy taxes. Charles I summoned Parliament in 1640, but shortly after dissolved it, and ruled alone. Fighting broke out in 1642 against the absolutistic royal government. The two sides were: the Roundheads (supporters of P) with the leadership of Oliver Cromwell, the other side was the Cavaliers (the Royalists, supporters of the King). Finally Parliament won and Charles I was executed.
