Charles II
... Many years ago, in England there was a king by the name of Charles I. Charles I was put on trial for treason, and executed. ... Parliament gave Charles only a fraction of the sum he had requested. Charles raised money without the Parliament’s consent. Oliver Cromwell wasn’t very fond of Charles; he was one of the men who signed the death warrant against King Charles I. The Parliament got together a group of people called the Roundheads and King Charles I gathered an army called the Cavaliers. Charles II, son of King Charles I, was run out of England and went to Europe.
