Topic: Second Civil War


  
  English Civil War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The wars inextricably mingled with and formed part of a linked series of conflicts and civil wars between 1639 and 1651 in the kingdoms of England, Scotland and Ireland, which at that time shared a monarch but formed distinct countries with otherwise separate political structures.
The wars led to the trial and execution of Charles I, the exile of his son Charles II, and the replacement of the English monarchy with the Commonwealth of England (1649 - 1653) and then with a Protectorate (1653 - 1659): the personal rule of Oliver Cromwell.
Wars of the Roses for a preceding case of the deposition of a king/dynasty and his royal court by a reformatory rebellion led by a Lord Protector (with a Burgundian alliance, rather than a Dutch one).

 Second English Civil War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The close of the First Civil War left England and Scotland in the hands potentially of any one of the four parties or any combination of two or more that should prove strong enough to dominate the rest.
Armed political Royalism was indeed at an end, but King Charles I, though practically a prisoner, considered himself and was, almost to the last, considered by the rest as necessary to ensure the success of whichever amongst the other three parties could come to terms with him.
The victors in the Second Civil War were not merciful to those who had brought war into the land again.
