England
King Charles I of England was often referred to as "the Martyr" after his execution in 1649, as he was seen by some as a martyr for his beliefs in the divine right of kings. Charles II, his son, was sometimes nicknamed "the Merry Monarch" due to his lively court and the restoration of the monarchy in 1660 after the Commonwealth period. These nicknames reflect their respective historical contexts and public perceptions.
