During the 17th century the British Isles were trapped in a
23-year-long state of turmoil through civil war, continued
rebellion, and revolution. King Charles I wanted to instil a new
uniform religious policy thoughout the British Isles, and this
cause a massive uproar over the King's policies towards the diverse
people in his kingdom, the English, Irish, Scottish, and Welsh. No
person remained unaffected in the Kingdom, and eventually King
Charles I was executed and the entire system of monarcy tumbled
into a short-lived republic. Eventually there was a restoration of
the monarchy under King Charles II and the history of the British
Isles in the 17th century remains forever marked by its tumultuous
nature. Through a concise historical chronology and comprehensive
overview, this book offers readers an explanation of the people,
places, and events that indelibly shape the United Kingdom's 17th
century history. The cross-listed dictionary entries provide an
explanation of each important aspect of the Civil War and its
effect on the kingdom.
