There wasn't a King after King Charles I but there was Oliver Cromwell who ruled even though he wasn't supposed to. He was mean and strict, so the people kicked him out of Parliament and made King Charles II king, who was King Charles I son. Answer the question? Not to forget that there was a civil war, the Royalists (Kings people) against the Parliamentarians, who incidentally won that war. The country and Parliament realised having Oliver in charge as the Protector was not such a good thing, and as usual people close to him plotted and he was replaced by Charles 1 son Charles 11.
