The Stuarts lost control primarily due to political and religious conflicts, notably the English Civil War, which pitted Royalists against Parliamentarians. Their attempts to assert absolute monarchy and impose Anglicanism alienated significant segments of society, including Puritans and Parliament. The execution of Charles I in 1649 and the subsequent establishment of the Commonwealth under Oliver Cromwell further diminished royal authority. Ultimately, the Glorious Revolution of 1688 solidified their loss of control, leading to the establishment of constitutional monarchy.
