    Thank you for this. It is very interesting. I feel the main underlying cause of the civil wars, was that much of England especially in the south east, were no longer 'feudal' in structure, but had become much more complex with merchants, businesses, tradesmen, couriers, deliverymen and the like. Many failed to see the need for an absolute monarch, which no longer could effectively rule such a complex society, and thus in practice became less connected if not irrelevant. Parliament with all its committees could address the nations needs more effectively, but as you stated Parliament was denied that voice during the so called 11 years personal rule. What you say of course happened, but the resulting clashes were symptoms of this deeper underlying cause of inability to govern effectively.
    On another note, the number of men who died in the war is nearly as much as British people who died in the second World War. It is sad, that this bloody period of English history is not taught in our schools, even because of its relevance to the rise of Parliamentary democracy.

      Charles wanted an autocracy and free reign to do as he saw fit. He truly believed that god bestowed leadership upon him and Parliament was the hinderance to him ruling as such.
      William Prynne recognised the king acting in such manner and overstepping his statutory bounds and John Hampden, who was MP for Buckinghamshire (if you don't know where it is please look it up - we're nowhere near the sea) rightly, stood up to him by refusing to raise the tax from his constituents.
      Charles had options available to him and chose to imprison and martyr John Hampden to save his own pride in the short term, which added to Hampdens later fame and lore once he died at the ambush at Chalgrove.
      Thomas Jefferson cites Hampden as one of his influences, amongst many other dissenters who've challenged authority since.
      The civil war was taught when I went to school at least (I hope it still is) and coming from a place where John Hampden lived, makes it all the more salient and important. And evermore relevant in todays social and political landscape.
      What we have lost is holding truth to power (irrespective of what side of the political fence you sit on, it's the same whether right or left) exacerbated by the indifference our elected officials value of our opinions and concerns, vs that of businesses and their lobbyists and the general malaise, apathy and disinterest most of us display in how we are now governed.

      You are mistaken; Britain did exist, as did Great Britain. They are geographical features, not countries.
      The name 'English' Civil War also isn't much accurate, though it is the popular name; Scotland and Ireland were each heavily involved in the three wars, particularly Scotland. That's why a lot of modern historians prefer the name 'Wars of the Three Kingdoms' or 'British Civil Wars' over the more inaccurate, if more popular, 'English Civil War'.

    Well articulated. One thing that might be added was that Cromwell's personal animosity toward the Crown was a result of the presumed bastardization of the Crown long before Charles I was crowned. "If the King desires to be regarded as King by Parliament, asserting the Divine Right of Privilege, then the King must be the Divine King!" I can almost hear Cromwell yelling over objection. In short, the problem was that Charles I asserted "the divine right of Kings" but was not the divine king -- the Bastard was. And the Bastard was in the New World and had been the host of the "First Thanksgiving" no matter what Honest Abe Lincoln's influence on history books has claimed when creating the covering holiday to commemorate a perverted explanation of what happened. What Charles did by chartering the New England Company to John Winthrop in 1629 was to violate a long established treaty with the New World by pretending the treaty did not exist -- in exchange for cash. Oops. Cromwell objected. John Winthrop, in the new world, did not object. For obvious reasons.

      John Pym along with other followers of Cromwell had been massacred and thrown into a pit. John Pym was named King John after he had died, for the great influence that he had had on Parliament. John Pym was a famous politician and the leader of the popular party in Long Parliament and had died at Derby House in Westminster on 8th December 1643. His magnificent funeral was held a few days later and both Houses of Parliament followed the coffin. He was buried under the gravestone of Sir John Wyndsore in the north ambulatory of Westminster Abbey. His body/remains were disinterred when Charles II was restored to the throne. This was done with many other followers of Cromwell; their remains were thrown in a pit of St. Margaret’s churchyard.
