The English Civil war led to the rise of Oliver Cromwell's military dictatorship in August 1647.
the English civil war was won by Oliver Cromwell (a member of the parliament) who was fighting for democracy. since he won the war, the parliament executed Charles I because of the charge of treason against him.

The English Civil War (1642-1651) had several long-term effects, including the establishment of parliamentary sovereignty over the monarchy, which laid the groundwork for modern British democracy. It also led to the eventual rise of constitutional monarchy after the Restoration in 1660, shaping the balance of power between the monarchy and Parliament. Additionally, the war fostered a culture of political and religious dissent, influencing future movements for civil rights and liberties in England and beyond. The conflict also contributed to changes in social and economic structures, paving the way for the rise of the gentry and capitalist practices.

The Rise of Democracy in EnglandThis was a lengthy process and no one individual was responsible. If I had to pick out a key turning-point it would be Parliament's resistance to Charles I's attempts to make the country an absolute monarchy, where the king was answerable only to God. The English Civil War(s) of 1642-48 and the execution of Charles I in 1649 were most important.In the Middle Ages and the early modern period a number of European countries had various kinds of assemblies of the 'Estates of the Realm'. What was remarkable about the English Parliament was that it was gradually transformed into an assembly representing the people (though not always very well).The next key turning-point after the Civil War was the Glorious Revolution of 1688-89 which established the principle that the monarch rules on the basis of a contract as it were.Joncey
