The Commonwealth was a republican form of government established in England from 1649 to 1660, following the English Civil War and the execution of King Charles I. It aimed to abolish monarchy and promote a more representative system, led by figures like Oliver Cromwell. The Commonwealth ultimately ended with the Restoration in 1660, as political instability, economic difficulties, and a desire for stability led to the public's support for reinstating the monarchy, which aligned with the emerging age of absolutism that favored centralized royal power.
