In England, the monarch historically held the power to imprison and behead individuals, particularly during times of political unrest or dissent. Notably, King Henry VIII was infamous for executing several of his wives and political rivals. Additionally, during the English Civil War, figures like Oliver Cromwell exercised similar authority, leading to the execution of King Charles I in 1649. The Tower of London often served as a notorious prison and execution site for those who fell out of favor.
