Two prominent figures ruled England as monarchs but, despite their power, both Father (Henry VIII) and his daughter (Elizabeth I) had to learn to work with Parliament to fulfill their goals
Background
This was going on when Spain and France were asserting Absolute Monarchy
Unlike these other countries, England’s monarchs had to compromise their power by consulting Parliament to secure funds for their endeavors.
head of the state had control over EVERYTHING.

AHHHH So ScaryMary Tudor, Henry’s first daughter ruled England
as a Catholic
Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary, Bloody…
The Nine Days Queen
A great-granddaughter of Henry VIII by his younger daughter Mary, Jane was a first-cousin-once-removed of Edward VI. The teenage King left her the Crown in his will

All in the FamilyWhen Mary died in 1558, Elizabeth I inherited the crown and returned England to Anglican, English Protestant
Following in the footsteps of her mother

Not a typical quality of an absolute monarch, but very beneficial to her reign was Elizabeth’s willingness to let the members of Parliament speak their minds without fear of punishment.
Elizabeth I, authoritarian monarch
But do not be fooled, Elizabeth reinforced her rule with a zero tolerance policy
In 1601 one of her favorite courtiers, the Duke of Essex questioned her authority and was publicly executed, warning other anarchists to curb their efforts.

Constant FightingJames I constantly conflicted with Parliament
James constantly conflicted with Parliament because of:
He was low on funds
He was from Scotland and was considered an outsider

The Puritans were a strict Calvinists, who wanted to “purify” the English Church.James saw them as a threat, so he didn’t pass many of
the Puritans requests.One reform James agreed to was the publication of an
English version of the Bible known as the King James Bible
I WILL NOT!
Ok, maybe just this once

When James died in 1625 his son was crowned Charles I.In 1628 Charles summoned Parliament to request money.Parliament wouldn’t grant his requests until Charles signed a
document, called the Petition of Right which placed limits on the king’s power, a direct challenge to absolute monarchy.
11 Year Tyranny on the Way
1. King couldn’t levy taxes without Parliament’s approval2.Couldn’t imprison anyone without legal justification3. Force citizens to house soldiers4. Declare martial law in peace time.
![Page 11: Honors World History](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816524550346895dd7a84c/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Charles dismissed Parliament and in 1629 decided to rule without consulting Parliament ever again.Charles didn’t call Parliament
into session for over a decade (11 years) until 1640 when he was so badly in debt because of religious rebellion in Scotland, that he had no choice.
Fine! Who Needs You?!
![Page 12: Honors World History](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816524550346895dd7a84c/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
After being ignored for so long Parliament made Charles I agree to 2 rules that he must heed in the future:Parliament must be called at least every three yearsThe king could no longer dismiss Parliament.
O No He Didn’t
![Page 13: Honors World History](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816524550346895dd7a84c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Charles I wages war on Parliament when a Puritan group within Parliament moved to abolish the appointment of bishops in the Anglican Church, which would diminish the kings power.Charles led troops into the House of Commons to arrest
leaders of that Puritan group, but the men had already escaped
This was the beginning of the English Civil War
O, IT’S ON!!!!!
![Page 14: Honors World History](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816524550346895dd7a84c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Without the support of Parliament the king had to rely on contributions to pay for his army
Roundheads were members of Parliament who opposed the king.
Royalists/ Cavaliers mostly made up of wealthy nobles, were supporters of the king.
![Page 15: Honors World History](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816524550346895dd7a84c/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Leader of the Roundheads was Oliver CromwellRose to power by being a successful military leader, in 1644
he led a victory for the Roundheads where they killed 4000 of the king’s soldiers.
We’re Going In!
In 1646 the king surrenders and Cromwell accumulated full control.
![Page 16: Honors World History](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816524550346895dd7a84c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Cromwell dismissed all members of Parliament who disagreed with him and created what was called a Rump Parliament .
This group of Cromwell’s men eventually charged the king with treason and on January 30th 1649 Charles I was publicly executed
This would later come back to bite him in the butt
There’s a New Sheriff in Town
The House of Commons abolished the House of Lords and outlawed the monarchy.

England became a commonwealth which is a republican government based on the common good of ALL the people.
In 1653 Cromwell was given the title Lord Protector of England
A Monarch for a Monarch
Following his faith very closely, Cromwell demanded complete obedience and eradicated all useless distractions such as theaters and limiting other forms of popular entertainment.

I won’t ruin the surprise, but we’ll see this guy again!Cromwell, the king’s death and war troubled many English
peopleOne of the popular Royalists who fled TO France during
Cromwell’s reign was Thomas Hobbes
OoOoOo Forshadowing!
Wrote Leviathan which argued that people needed an all-powerful monarch to tell them how to liveThis inspired England to try to find a balance between a representative government and the monarchy.Leviathan is one of the seven princes of Hell and its
gatekeeper

Richard Cromwell took over after his father’s death in 1658.Wasn’t the brightest crayon in the boxEventually parliament reconvened and voted to bring
back the monarchy , this event eventually became known as The Restoration.
Sometimes the Apple Does Fall Far from the Tree
In 1660, Parliament invited the son king Charles I (dead/executed) to rule, which he accepted, and that same year was crowned Charles II
No Hard Feelings?
![Page 20: Honors World History](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816524550346895dd7a84c/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Cromwell RevisitedThe rule of Charles II had positive and negative
events (1660-1685)Positive:Reopened theaters and encouraged the artsPassed the Habeas Corpus Act of 1679, which guaranteed
that someone accused of a crime had the right to appear in court to determine if they were to be held or released.
Back With a Vengeance and Some Good Ideas
Negative:Resurgence of the Bubonic Plague in 1665, killing 100,000 in London alone.
The Great Fire of London, which destroyed large parts of the city but also killed the rats that spread the deadly plague.

Because James II was a Catholic he wasn’t very popular when he took the throne after his brother, Charles’s death in 1685.James, like many before him, believed in an absolute
monarchy, which the people of England couldn’t tolerate anymore.
In 1688 a group of nobles invited James’s daughter Mary and her husband William to rule, they would become William and Mary of Orange
James didn’t put up a fight and fled to France. Because there was no bloodshed during this major political shift it became known as the Glorious Revolution.
Another One?

The RestorationParliament had essentially crowned the new king and queen
The English Bill of Rights William and Mary had to sign before taking throne. (*inspiration for the US Constitution)It prevented monarchs from
levying taxes without consent of Parliament, among other provisions
This document showed England’s growth as a constitutional monarchy a term for a monarchy limited by law.
![Page 23: Honors World History](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816524550346895dd7a84c/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
England had finally rejected the concept of absolute monarch who ruled by divine right, now there would only be a monarchy ruled by law.
