	Parliament (Pepys' Diary)
		The Parliament of England was the legislature of the Kingdom of England.
		The remaining "Rump Parliament", as it was later referred to by critics, enacted legislation to put the King on trial for treason, on the grounds that he had severed the contract with his subjects by starting a war with their representatives in Parliament.
		This new status of Parliament as the central organ of the English state was consolidated during the events surrounding the Restoration of the monarchy in 1660.

		He was forced to call the Short Parliament primarily to obtain money to finance his military struggle with Scotland in the Bishops' Wars.
		Like its predecessors, the new parliament had greater interest in redressing perceived grievances occasioned by the royal administration than in voting the King funds to pursue his war against the Scottish Covenanters.
		John Pym, the Member for Tavistock, quickly emerged as a major figure in debate; his long speech on 17 April expressed the refusal of the House of Commons to vote subsidies unless royal abuses were addressed.

	Carlisle, England - LoveToKnow 1911
		The London and North-Western and the Midland railways of England, and the Caledonian, North British and Glasgow and South-Western of Scotland, here make a junction for through traffic between England and Scotland; and the city is further served by the North Eastern (from Newcastle) and the Maryport and Carlisle railways.
		But all was swept away by the Northmen, and though William Rufus, who rehabilitated the town, doubtless made provision for an ecclesiastical foundation, it was left for Henry I., in 1133, to create a bishopric out of the house of Augustinian canons, founded in 1102.
		This was the sole episcopal chapter of regular canons of St Augustine in England.

		England is named after the Angles (Old English genitive case, "Engla" - hence, Old English "Engla Land"), one of a number of Germanic tribes believed to have originated in Angeln in northern Germany, who settled in England in the 5th and 6th centuries.
		The list of England's largest cities is much debated because in English the normal meaning of city is "a continuously built-up urban area"; these are hard to define and various other definitions are preferred by some people to boost the ranking of their own city.
		England is both the most populous and the most ethnically diverse nation in the United Kingdom with 50 million inhabitants [3], or 83.7% of the UK's total.

	History of England and its English Heritage
		Among the chief political characteristics of the rule of the Saxons in England was the growth of the power of the king, and the early establishment of the Witenagemot, without the sanction of which the king was supposed to undertake nothing of importance.
		Charles prorogued his first two Parliaments, and although he was compelled by the Parliament, which convened in 1628 to assent to the Petition of Right, he assembled no Parliament for eleven years after that time and ruled almost as arbitrarily as Louis XIV of France.
		The strongest man in parliament and in the army, Oliver Cromwell, soon showed himself the natural head of the country, and he was able by 1653 to make himself Lord Protector of the commonwealth and to rule almost absolutely until his death in 1658.

	The Reformation In England Under Henry VIII.
		England, as regards the feelings and established principles of the great body of her people, could hardly be pronounced a Protestant country before the middle of Elizabeth's reign.
		The Lollards represented a cause which had already been condemned and covered with odium, The resemblance, therefore, of their tenets to the leading doctrines of the new reformers was the reverse of a recommendation to the latter, especially with the middle and higher classes.
		Thus the Reformation was begun in England by scholars and common people acting in entire independence of the Government, and in the face of its violent opposition.

		While the higher classes repaired with their dependants to the support of the king, the call of the parliament was cheerfully obeyed by the yeomanry in the country, and by the merchants and tradesmen in the towns.
		The parliament reproached the king that, while he professed the strongest repugnance to shed the blood of Englishmen, he had surprised and murdered their adherents at Brentford, unsuspicious as they were, and relying on the security of a pretended negotiation.

	ALL THE WAY DOWN THE SLIPPERY SLOPE: GUN PROHIBITION IN ENGLAND AND SOME LESSONS FOR CIVIL LIBERTIES IN AMERICA
		Historians view the widespread individual ownership of arms as an important factor in the "moderation of monarchial rule and the development of the concept of individual liberties"[14] in England during a period when absolute, divine-right royal rule was expanding as the norm in continental Europe.
		Parliament had never voted to outlaw defensive gun ownership, but self-defense fell victim to what Schauer calls "the consequences of linguistic imprecision."[104] When a legal rule is expressed in imprecise terms there is a heightened risk that subsequent interpreters of the rule may apply the rule differently than the formulators of the rule would have.
		Parliament never granted the police home inspection authority, nor did Parliament enact legislation saying that a hardened safe is the only acceptable storage method.
