The English Civil War: The Conflict That Overthrew the Monarchy

The English Civil War is perhaps one of the greatest internal conflicts in English history. This conflict between the king and parliament led to a fierce struggle for power, which ultimately overthrew the monarchy and inevitably influenced the further history of the country.

It all started with King Charles I Stuart, who, in the wake of the trend of absolutism, decided to dissolve parliament and rule alone. Parliament, supported by ordinary English people, did not approve of such an idea. This, as well as numerous religious and economic oppression of the population, led to an uprising, which sparked the Civil War. In this video, you will delve into the turbulent period of King Charles's confrontation with Parliament, led by the famous Oliver Cromwell, and learn how the English managed to overthrow the monarchy and how it resulted.
