The Relationship Between King Charles I And The Parliament
Build–up to war
The relationship between King Charles I and the Parliament became more and more tense. Within the Parliament, factions were created between the
ones who supported the King, and the ones who wanted a better and larger reform.
King Charles entered the House of Commons with armed soldiers in January 1642. His intention was to arrest five Members of Parliament, but the
ones he was planning to arrest had been tipped off beforehand so they were not present. In March the same year, the Parliament passed the Militia
Ordinance that gave the Parliament control of the local military forces. As a response, the King started to gather his own Royalist army. Both Royalists
and Parliamentarians raided stores in order to get weapons and ammunition. Most of the large towns and cities stated who they supported, the King or
the Parliament.
On August 22 in 1642, King Charles I raised the Royal Standard at Nottingham, and by that he had officially declared war against the Parliament.
The result of the war
The civil war resulted in a parliamentary victory for Oliver Cromwell. Cromwell was the only non–royal person to ever hold the position as Lord
Protector of England. He also played an important role in leading Charles I to trial and, to execution by beheading in 1649. Cromwell attempted the
most vicious military conquest ever committed by ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Several of the initial actions of the Civil War revolved around taking county armouries to get a hold of weapons. King Charles I disarmed the Trained
Bands in Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire and Leicestershire to use their weapons to arm volunteer soldiers and troops. After a short while, both sides
started to prefer using volunteer soldiers. When the interest and the devotion for the war started to drop, they started to use impressment, which means

King James I and His Journey
King James I and His Journey King James I was born on the 19th of June in 1566 and later crowned king when he was only a year old. He grew up
with many difficulties in life due to his mother being Mary, the queen of Scots and his father Henry, the Lord of Darnley both had many things to
do instead of being with their son and helping him learn and become educated. On the other hand he learned how to read and write poetry (Butler).
He later developed knowledge and love toward literature and learning new things. The rules in Scotland were created by King James to express
his feelings and thoughts on what the rights of Kings should be. Writing the rules of Scotland helped him to tell people what his feelings on the
right way to treat a king as well as discussing the struggles of his childhood. From the very beginning of his childhood, King James was crowned
King and his life was changed drastically from the rest of the children around his age. Later on in life, he became interested in writing, he started to
write poetry and books on life and the struggles that he and some of his family members faced. He mostly wrote about how he had a special
relationship with God from a special viewpoint (Butler). By writing the book about his relationship with God he became a soldier in God's army and
was protected from any danger that the devil might bring him (Tyson). His writing made many people realize how good of a person he really is.

The Challenges Of King Arceus I And The Midgard Empire
Thousand of years ago, the world was in chaotic where there were two empires fought to spread their influences and territory. The empires had fought
for a long time since their ancestors. The Satanic Empire was known for its barbarous, merciless prevail while its foe, the Midgard Empire, was
known for its equality, harmonic reign. Even though both empires had different ways of ruling, they both had arisen a great and superior civilization of
all time. Nevertheless, they never reached a consensus for a peace. Dissent and political understanding to prevent peace talks between them had led
them to war for thousand of years. Until then, King Arceus I, who was appointed to succeed his father, had brought the Midgard Empire to triumph

The Role Of Royal Absolutism In King Charles I
Charles I and the Establishment of Royal Absolutism Royal absolutism is a state of government whereby the monarch rules supreme, with virtually
no legislative power placed in other organisations such as Parliament. For the people of England in the 1630s, it was a very real threat. After the
dissolving of Parliament in 1629, Charles I embarked on his Personal Rule. Without analysing whose fault the breakdown in relations was, it was
probably the only thing Charles could do in the circumstances. Certainly, no dialogue with Parliament was possible. After 1629, the country became
particularly distrustful of the King. Charles' problem was he was an inept ruler whose belief in such ideas as the Divine... Show more content on

Religion was very much a pivotal issue in people's concern. Right from the start of his reign, Charles had displayed Catholic sympathies as expressed in
Arminianism, which some people called "Catholicism under another name". But now with Parliament gone, there was seemingly no–one to keep the
King's beliefs in check and to remind him that England was a Protestant country. The King's religious beliefs were of special concern thanks to the rapid
promotion of William Laud, eventually to Archbishop of Canterbury. Laud was an unpopular figure even by the King's own supporters. Those
opposing the King detested Laud for his Arminian reforms in the Church of England. Unfortunately for Charles, this did tend to unite people against
him. The problem was that Puritans and Calvinists who opposed the Arminian innovations had good reason to be concerned. Laud's changes were very
Catholic in nature, including repositioning the altar so that staunch Puritans would say that the minister is blocking the route to God. Laud tried to
raise the status of the clergy so that they were "equal to any gentleman in England." He ordered that the private pews of the gentry that set them apart
from the rest of the congregation be removed. This humiliated them.Arminianism was such an ambiguous idea that, while it

I Have A Dream By Martin Luther King
Civil Rights I Have a Dream by Martin Luther King, Jr was a speech given on August 28, 1963. The speech took place on Lincoln Memorial in
Washington, D.C. where thousands of blacks and whites joined together to listen. Martin Luther King, Jr stated his dreams of what America should be
like, equal for all colored people, including blacks. African Americans should have civil rights equal to that of white men. The system is unfair, but
African Americans want to believe that it is not. Even though many civil rights acts have been passed in order to give African American citizens the
equal right to white citizens, the system is still corrupt. America must act now to demolish racial injustice. African Americans will not rest until their
efforts have changed segregation. In order to achieve this unification and equality for all of American citizens, the people should not degenerate their
protests into physical violence. Instead of acting out of discipline the people should act out dignity. Black and whites should be able to join hands to
together and live peacefully among one another. Colored people will be able to get along non–colored people as friends and families. Every citizen,
blacks and whites, will be able to go to school together, use the same bathroom together, sit together, and live together. Everything will be peaceful for

Was William II or Henry I king of England the better King?...
Of William I's (1066–1087) sons, William the II (1087–1100) was a better king than his younger brother Henry I (1100–1135). William I's was the first
Norman king to rule England. He split his heritance between his three living sons. Robert received the rule of Normandy, William II received
England and Henry I received five thousand pounds. In early medieval England a good king was a heroic soldier and a strong leader who was fair but
enforced the law. It was also important that they were Christian and unsinful. William II "The Rufus"–because of his red face or temper, was true to
himself and what he believed in while Henry I "Beauclerc"–because of his high level of education, was a brutal and selfish king, not only to his people,

Considering this, it is easy to presume that William II treated the church in the manner he did because he was treated unfairly by them. Although
Henry I was very giving to the church and restored most of the damage his older brother had inflicted, he was no without sin. Henry I has the
largest amount of illegitimate children, of an English King, recorded in history. It was recorded that he had over 20 illegitimate children to many
different mistresses. [3] Almost all of his children where acknowledged as his and given superior placements as earls, but because Henry gave the
land and money taken from William II back to the church, this known fact was ignored. Henry I paid for his sins by being extremely kind to the
church. Both William II and Henry I were strong soldiers like their father and fought in their wars alongside their soldiers. [1][2] Different
historians believe each to be the better solider. Most Historians believe Henry I to be the stronger swordsmen, but we must remember that most of
the sources found are written with a very biased view, leaning towards Henry I as he was a religious man, unlike William II. The fact of who is the
better swordsman is one that can never truly be discovered. Even thought they were both great soldiers, they were not both unfair law enforces.

Absolutistic Beliefs Of King James I
In France and England in the 1610s through the late 1640s, the monarchies and people surrounding them attempted to make their rules more
absolute and govern unchallenged, consequently taking power away from the people. The people, dissatisfied with the policies resulting from
absolutism such as raised taxes and lesser influence, attempted to enhance their own power through whatever means they deemed necessary. Even
before King James I's ascension to the English throne in 1603, he advocated for absolute monarchy while king of Scotland. In his The Trew Law
of Free Monarchies (1598), James I stated "touching the power of kings with this axiom of divinity, that as to dispute what God may do is
blasphemy . . . so is it sedition in subjects to dispute what a king may do in the height of his power" (Lecture 11/07). After being crowned King of
England, King James I immediately began to implement his absolutistic beliefs. King Charles I, son of James I, also believed in absolutism, and
likewise attempted to expand the power of the king by forcing loans through Parliament, arresting protestors without due process, and generally
ignoring the input of Parliament and the rights of the people. When Parliament presented the Petition of Rights in 1628, King Charles I responded by
disbanding it and ruling alone for eleven years (Lecture 11/07). By disbanding Parliament, King Charles I effectively silenced any input that was not

King Richard I Research Paper
FAQs About King Richard I Q: What family heritage does King Richard I come from? A: King Richard I was born on September 8, 1157 most
likely at Beaumont Palace, in Oxford, England. His father was King Henry II of England and his mother was Eleanor of Aquitaine. Richard was not
the eldest son amongst his siblings as he had two older siblings, however, he would've had three older siblings if King Henry II's first born, William
IX, didn't die during his infancy. Richard also had four younger siblings and he was the youngest of two half siblings. His father, King Henry, was
Norman–Angevin and descends from William the Conquerer as his great–grandson. Historian Ralph of Diceto mapped Henry's heritage through
Matilda of Scotland all the way to Anglo–Saxon kings of England including Alfred the Great, which links to Noah and Woden ("Richard "the
Lionheart", King of England"). In relation to Queen Elizabeth II, King Richard I is her 21st great–granduncle ("King Richard I The Lion Heart |

convinced her sons to rebel against their father Henry II. The oldest brother, Henry the Young King, was the first to leave King Henry II and go to

King Charles I 's Reign
King Charles I's reign was unsuccessful, because he was unprepared to take on Scotland, England, and Ireland, each with its own political and legal
structures. He was under the influence of bishops, priests, and friends who pulled him different directions in regards to war, religion, and economy.
King Charles I's was foolish and failed to rule England with an absolute monarchy, because he formed poor relations with the Protestant majority of
Parliament, he raised and created new taxes, and he lost support of Scottish nobility. The king looked to the Pope for guidance in difficult situations,
seeking advice to handle angry veterans returning from the Thirty Years' War. Persuaded by bishops, Charles reestablished congregations and
restored church paintings and sculptures. Bishop Juxon took office as Treasurer, which was frowned upon by Charles' Protestant people. Charles'
reign was largely influenced by the Duke of Buckingham, George Villiers. At first, Charles was jealous of the attention George received from Charles'
father, who treated George like a son, later on, however; they became close companions. George guided many of Charles' decisions, including his
calling off the marriage arrangement with a Spanish king's sister. On June 18, 1625, Charles assembled Parliament for the first time during his reign to

Having a monarchy added a sense of stability and security in the nation because the people always knew there would be another leader and that he

lands from the Muslims led by Saladin Jessica has also written that during the crusades Richard had made many enemies by insulting and
aggravating most of his Christian allies during the crusades against Saladin. Because of him not keeping his mouth shut he could not return home
easily. Thus resorting him to sneak through the foreign territory of the Duke of Austria in disguise. Like all others, I do not know what was said

King Richard I : The Lion King
Richard I ruled as the king of England from 1189–1199. King Richard I, also known as "The Lion Heart" was a glorious warrior and military leader,
known to be extremely ambitious, that led England through many significant military accomplishments. His father, Henry II didn't believe that
Richard would be a successful ruler of England, but in his short reign of only nine years, he was able to make an enormous accomplishment for
England. His greatest accomplishment was the Third Crusade, and over a reign of only about nine years, King Richard I was able to recover much
of the Holy Land from Saladin, the leader of the Islamic forces during the Third Crusade. Even though he failed to recover the city of Jerusalem, he
negotiated a peace treaty with Saladin that allowed the Christians to practice their religion in all of the Holy Places in the city. Richard I was able to
reverse almost all of the conquests of Saladin, allowing the Christians to reoccupy the coast of Palestine. Richard I's conquests and significant military
accomplishments for England prove him a successful leader of England.
Richard I was born on September 8th, 1157, the third son of Henry II and Eleanor of Aquitaine. Richard's father was the grandson of Henry I of
England and his mother was the daughter of William X of France. King Henry II Richard had an older brother, young King Henry, and an older sister
Matilda. He also had two younger brothers, Geoffrey and John, and two younger sisters, Eleanor and Joan.

I Am A Better King Than I Essay
It was early springtime, well before Percival III and Gwaine II 's births. Grace was recovering nicely, and life in Camelot carried on as usual. Thus,
Llacheu and his fourteen–year–old brother, Amr, stood out on the grassy training field in full armor, practicing their sword work under Gwaine 's
watchful eye. But Gwaine was positioned far enough away so he couldn 't make out the details of the boys ' conversation. Or, that 's what the

King Richard I : The Lionheart Of England
Richard I or often called the "Lionheart" was the Duke of Aquitaine, Poitiers, and Normandy. The count of Anjou and his later in his years The
king of England. He was the son of King Henry II and Eleanor of Aquitaine. King Richard was born In Oxford, England on September 8, 1157,
according to Geoffrey Wallis Steuart Barrow (2017). Hickman has stated in "Crusades: King Richard I the Lionheart of England" that He was the
third son of King Henry II and was believed to be the favorite son of Eleanor of Aquitaine. He was smart, had a very dashing appearance, had skillful in
military matters and worked to enforce his father's rule in France. Jessica hope believes that at the age of 9, Prince Richard was married to 9–year–old
Princess Alais, daughter of French king Louis VII. However, Henry II did not intend to keep his promise like he has not all others. He fooled Louis
VII into handing over his daughter. The only part of this that really angers me is that after Henry had kidnapped Princess Alais he kept her captive
and used her as his mistress. Well, of course, many of us know that Richard had fought in the crusade, but he had battled against his father as well
later becoming king of England. Geoffrey Wallis Barrow's "Crusades: King Richard I the Lionheart of England" reads that after the death of his father,
King Richard was given his English throne on the 30th of September. Along with his throne in England, he had also taken control parts of France
including Normandy.

Theme Of I Am The King Of The Castle
How is the tension built up in the episode with the crow and how is the experience symbolic of Kingshaw and Edmund Hooper relationship? In the
novel, "I'm the King of the Castle," Susan Hill explores the theme of power as she expresses Edmund's obsessive desire to highlight his superiority to
Kingshaw, whose upbringing has been impoverished than Edmund's. For example throughout the chapter three, she exploits the theme of nature, the
episode with the crow, as an indicator of Hooper's hostility and Kingshaw's fatality to even struggle to conquer the place in Hooper's mansion, the
Warings. The author builds up tension to reflect on the similarities between the two offenders, Hooper and the crow, and let the reader forebode the
future chain of the events based on the chapter three. Using various literary techniques, she has achieved the appropriate effect on the reader. Susan Hill

Why Do I Admire Martin Luther King I Have A Dream
Firstly, I admire Martin Luther king for his vision that we are equal. Even though African American were no longer slaves to whites, they were living
racism, segregation, discrimination by government, neighbors, schools, places and public transport. At that time, Martin Luther king stood up to
fight for equality, where everybody is the same. To do that he was dedicated, worked hard to convey the same value of equality to everyone. He did
not give up for his ancestor's past or for the limitations in the present, he stood up with faith and hope that one day black and whites will be together,
as he said, "We must live together as brothers or perish together as fools."
Another aspect that I admire from Martin Luther King is that he used peace to fight for civil rights. His philosophy was " peace and not violence is
always better" http://www.care2.com/greenliving/5–positive–lessons–learned–from–dr–martin–luther–king–jr.html.

freedom and do not give up in your dreams. As Luther king said in his speech, "I have a dream that one day little black boys and girls will be
holding hands with little white boys and girls." Today we can see children and adults, on the bus, in the parks, in restaurants, in schools, in universities,

For example, the struggling state of women's rights that is still under neglect, shows that throughout the past, women's rights in the Middle East have
been severely overlooked and not taken into consideration as the present day culture continues to evolve. The pushing of this sensitive agenda may
be the one with most repercussions mainly due to the predicament that is set in the region. Although the possibility of punishment and other severe
ways of discipline are in play, this does not eliminate the fact that change will not come without resistance. The women that go out and fight for
what they believe in will not follow with immediate action, but spark a possible movement that will follow into something greater. Recognition of
the situation can, and will create a new view on the issue. The views held in the Middle East have been held onto for many years and do not seek
change in Sharia Law, but have been opposed in recent years. With that said, as similar with other situations, the change will come with resistance and
revolt while still carrying the damaging effects on the road to change. "It takes courage to die for a cause, but also to live for one."

Throughout history select individuals have been documented as a result of their ability to lead, or lack there of. The documentation over the

the most memorable leaders in world history are Queen Elizabeth I and King Henry V who both shared the duty of ruler over England at some

This essay will focus on the actions of King Charles I and how his decisions impacted on each of his three kingdoms, England, Scotland and Ireland
during the years 1638 – 1642. It will look at the relationships and retrospectively the breakdown of relations within each of these kingdoms. Charles
inherited three very different Kingdoms from his father King James I in 1625. Ireland was predominantly Catholic apart from the few Protestants that
James had planted on Irish soil. England was Anglican, although many known as puritans felt that the Anglican Church was not protestant enough,
possibly due to Charles marriage alliance with the French Princess Henrietta Maria, who was openly Catholic and was allowed to publicly practice her
religion. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Firstly, his belief in "the Divine Right of Kings" was seen by many of his subjects as an attempt by the king to gain absolute power. The second was
his wish to push his ideal religious views in England; his idea to reintroduce bishops to govern the Church of Scotland angered the Scots. The fact that
he was married to a Catholic meant that many in his kingdoms felt he was seeking to revert to Catholicism; making him extremely unpopular with
many of his subjects. The conflict was whether the monarch was trying to dictate the religion of individuals. While the monarch wanted to exercise
authority by controlling the religion of the land, most people wished to make personal choices on matters of faith. They felt that Charles was denying
them the right of worship.Charles managed to provoke Parliament, by dissolving them and refusing to listen to sense. On the other hand, Parliament
sought independence from the monarch by establishing laws that empowered it. Parliaments concern was about the King taking control of raise taxes
without seeking Parliament's approval. This troubled members of the House of Lords; they believed the monarch was overstepping its mandate. The
Wars of the Three Kingdoms was based on the sovereignty of individual kingdoms. For instance, Ireland and Scotland were pleased with the
domination of England in most political matters, but they were not satisfied by the fact that their religious beliefs were ignored.

The Religious Conversions of King Clovis I and Emperor...
Throughout history, there have been many instances of leaders converting to new religions, but none have had an impact such as the conversion of
Constantine I, nor as ground–breaking as that of Clovis I. Constantine I was born in the year 280. During his reign as emperor of the Roman Empire,
the state was falling apart. 1 He was the first Roman emperor to convert to Christianity. He called the Council of Nicea in 325 to resolve conflicts
arising between the Arian Christians and the Athansian Christians. 2 This resulted in the canonization of Athansian Christianity, to which Constantine I
converted his empire. 3Clovis I was born in the year 466, he was the king of the Franks and ruled Gaul for 30 years. 4 It is unknown when he
converted to Christianity, however he was baptised in 496. Clovis I was the first Germanic king to convert to Christianity, and while he did not
convert his entire state, his conversion was a turning point in Frankish and European history. Behind any conversion, is a reason. For Constantine I, it
was an empire coming apart at the seams. For Clovis, it was a need to be more palatable to a mostly Christian populous.
While Constantine I ruled the Roman Empire, Christianity became the overriding faith of Rome. 5 While Constantine I had been exposed to
Christianity during childhood through his mother, Helena, he was never a true believer. Many Christian sources write that Constantine received a
revelation in 312 before the Battle of Milvian Bridge.

The Trail of King Charles I
After the end of the civil war, officers of the New Model Army, formed by Cromwell, decided to put Charles on trial. Parliament voted to negotiate
with the King in order to come to a peace agreement, but that was met with a fierce rebuke from Cromwell and his army. In order to kill any hope
for the King and to prevent any kind of compromise between the King and Parliament, one hundred and eighty members of Parliament were
excluded, and forty five were imprisoned for showing resistance. This act of purging was described simply as a coup d'Г©tat. (23 Laughland) If the
king is truly guilty and hated by his people, Cromwell wouldn't have needed to perform this despicable action of arresting and barring Parliament
members from their seats. At this point, the authority of Parliament that was supported by the Roundheads, over the King's, has lost all its legality.
Parliament became a military tool in the hand of Cromwell and his army. In addition to this, Cromwell's son–in–law, Henry Ireton, was the one who
submitted a request to prosecute the King, which was naturally accepted by the one third of the Parliament left. A court with the name of 'High Court
of Justice' was formed to be responsible for the King's trial. (103–104 TURCHETTI) Cromwell who accused the King of abusing his power is no better
in using it himself; a Bill of Attainder was created especially for the king by the High Court of Justice. The infamous Bills of Attainder are considered

The Relationship Between King Charles I And The Parliament

  • 1. The Relationship Between King Charles I And The Parliament Build–up to war The relationship between King Charles I and the Parliament became more and more tense. Within the Parliament, factions were created between the ones who supported the King, and the ones who wanted a better and larger reform. King Charles entered the House of Commons with armed soldiers in January 1642. His intention was to arrest five Members of Parliament, but the ones he was planning to arrest had been tipped off beforehand so they were not present. In March the same year, the Parliament passed the Militia Ordinance that gave the Parliament control of the local military forces. As a response, the King started to gather his own Royalist army. Both Royalists and Parliamentarians raided stores in order to get weapons and ammunition. Most of the large towns and cities stated who they supported, the King or the Parliament. On August 22 in 1642, King Charles I raised the Royal Standard at Nottingham, and by that he had officially declared war against the Parliament. The result of the war The civil war resulted in a parliamentary victory for Oliver Cromwell. Cromwell was the only non–royal person to ever hold the position as Lord Protector of England. He also played an important role in leading Charles I to trial and, to execution by beheading in 1649. Cromwell attempted the most vicious military conquest ever committed by ...

Dissent and political understanding to prevent peace talks between them had led them to war for thousand of years.

  • 4. The Role Of Royal Absolutism In King Charles I Charles I and the Establishment of Royal Absolutism Royal absolutism is a state of government whereby the monarch rules supreme, with virtually no legislative power placed in other organisations such as Parliament. For the people of England in the 1630s, it was a very real threat. After the dissolving of Parliament in 1629, Charles I embarked on his Personal Rule. Without analysing whose fault the breakdown in relations was, it was probably the only thing Charles could do in the circumstances. Certainly, no dialogue with Parliament was possible. After 1629, the country became particularly distrustful of the King. Charles' problem was he was an inept ruler whose belief in such ideas as the Divine... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Religion was very much a pivotal issue in people's concern. Right from the start of his reign, Charles had displayed Catholic sympathies as expressed in Arminianism, which some people called "Catholicism under another name". But now with Parliament gone, there was seemingly no–one to keep the King's beliefs in check and to remind him that England was a Protestant country. The King's religious beliefs were of special concern thanks to the rapid promotion of William Laud, eventually to Archbishop of Canterbury. Laud was an unpopular figure even by the King's own supporters. Those opposing the King detested Laud for his Arminian reforms in the Church of England. Unfortunately for Charles, this did tend to unite people against him. The problem was that Puritans and Calvinists who opposed the Arminian innovations had good reason to be concerned. Laud's changes were very Catholic in nature, including repositioning the altar so that staunch Puritans would say that the minister is blocking the route to God. Laud tried to raise the status of the clergy so that they were "equal to any gentleman in England." He ordered that the private pews of the gentry that set them apart from the rest of the congregation be removed. This humiliated them.Arminianism was such an ambiguous idea that, while it ...

The speech took place on Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. where thousands of blacks and whites joined together to listen. Martin Luther King, Jr stated his dreams of what America should be like, equal for all colored people, including blacks. African Americans should have civil rights equal to that of white men. The system is unfair, but African Americans want to believe that it is not. Even though many civil rights acts have been passed in order to give African American citizens the equal right to white citizens, the system is still corrupt. America must act now to demolish racial injustice. African Americans will not rest until their efforts have changed segregation. In order to achieve this unification and equality for all of American citizens, the people should not degenerate their protests into physical violence. Instead of acting out of discipline the people should act out dignity. Black and whites should be able to join hands to together and live peacefully among one another. Colored people will be able to get along non–colored people as friends and families.

  • 6. Was William II or Henry I king of England the better King?... Of William I's (1066–1087) sons, William the II (1087–1100) was a better king than his younger brother Henry I (1100–1135). William I's was the first Norman king to rule England. He split his heritance between his three living sons. Robert received the rule of Normandy, William II received England and Henry I received five thousand pounds. In early medieval England a good king was a heroic soldier and a strong leader who was fair but enforced the law. It was also important that they were Christian and unsinful.

Henry I paid for his sins by being extremely kind to the church. Both William II and Henry I were strong soldiers like their father and fought in their wars alongside their soldiers. [1][2] Different historians believe each to be the better solider. Most Historians believe Henry I to be the stronger swordsmen, but we must remember that most of the sources found are written with a very biased view, leaning towards Henry I as he was a religious man, unlike William II. The fact of who is the better swordsman is one that can never truly be discovered. Even thought they were both great soldiers, they were not both unfair law enforces.

  • 7. Absolutistic Beliefs Of King James I In France and England in the 1610s through the late 1640s, the monarchies and people surrounding them attempted to make their rules more absolute and govern unchallenged, consequently taking power away from the people. The people, dissatisfied with the policies resulting from absolutism such as raised taxes and lesser influence, attempted to enhance their own power through whatever means they deemed necessary. Even before King James I's ascension to the English throne in 1603, he advocated for absolute monarchy while king of Scotland. In his The Trew Law of Free Monarchies (1598), James I stated "touching the power of kings with this axiom of divinity, that as to dispute what God may do is blasphemy . . . so is it sedition in subjects to dispute what a king may do in the height of his power" (Lecture 11/07). After being crowned King of England, King James I immediately began to implement his absolutistic beliefs. King Charles I, son of James I, also believed in absolutism, and likewise attempted to expand the power of the king by forcing loans through Parliament, arresting protestors without due process, and generally ignoring the input of Parliament and the rights of the people. When Parliament presented the Petition of Rights in 1628, King Charles I responded by disbanding it and ruling alone for eleven years (Lecture 11/07).

  • 11. King Richard I Research Paper FAQs About King Richard I Q: What family heritage does King Richard I come from? A: King Richard I was born on September 8, 1157 most likely at Beaumont Palace, in Oxford, England. His father was King Henry II of England and his mother was Eleanor of Aquitaine. Richard was not the eldest son amongst his siblings as he had two older siblings, however, he would've had three older siblings if King Henry II's first born, William IX, didn't die during his infancy. Richard also had four younger siblings and he was the youngest of two half siblings. His father, King Henry, was Norman–Angevin and descends from William the Conquerer as his great–grandson.

  • 12. King Charles I 's Reign King Charles I's reign was unsuccessful, because he was unprepared to take on Scotland, England, and Ireland, each with its own political and legal structures. He was under the influence of bishops, priests, and friends who pulled him different directions in regards to war, religion, and economy. King Charles I's was foolish and failed to rule England with an absolute monarchy, because he formed poor relations with the Protestant majority of Parliament, he raised and created new taxes, and he lost support of Scottish nobility. The king looked to the Pope for guidance in difficult situations, seeking advice to handle angry veterans returning from the Thirty Years' War. Persuaded by bishops, Charles reestablished congregations and restored church paintings and sculptures. Bishop Juxon took office as Treasurer, which was frowned upon by Charles' Protestant people. Charles' reign was largely influenced by the Duke of Buckingham, George Villiers. At first, Charles was jealous of the attention George received from Charles' father, who treated George like a son, later on, however; they became close companions. George guided many of Charles' decisions, including his calling off the marriage arrangement with a Spanish king's sister.

Even though James put countless hours and days into abolishing the questioning it persisted. Having a monarchy added a sense of stability and security in the nation because the people always knew there would be another leader and that he /she was God chosen. This idea was heavily criticized because it challenged the Magna Carta. James I basically went fully against that piece of legislature and stated that kings are above the law and that the rule of law should not and does not apply to them. The long term effects of this are also very impactful. This ideology was created by James I but it was carried on by "The Sun King" Louis XIV, and it was fully abolished in 1688–89 aka the "Glorious Revolution".

The second was his wish to push his ideal religious views in England; his idea to reintroduce bishops to govern the Church of Scotland angered the Scots. The fact that he was married to a Catholic meant that many in his kingdoms felt he was seeking to revert to Catholicism; making him extremely unpopular with many of his subjects. The conflict was whether the monarch was trying to dictate the religion of individuals. While the monarch wanted to exercise authority by controlling the religion of the land, most people wished to make personal choices on matters of faith. They felt that Charles was denying them the right of worship.Charles managed to provoke Parliament, by dissolving them and refusing to listen to sense. On the other hand, Parliament sought independence from the monarch by establishing laws that empowered it. Parliaments concern was about the King taking control of raise taxes without seeking Parliament's approval. This troubled members of the House of Lords; they believed the monarch was overstepping its mandate. The Wars of the Three Kingdoms was based on the sovereignty of individual kingdoms.

Constantine I was born in the year 280. During his reign as emperor of the Roman Empire, the state was falling apart. 1 He was the first Roman emperor to convert to Christianity. He called the Council of Nicea in 325 to resolve conflicts arising between the Arian Christians and the Athansian Christians. 2 This resulted in the canonization of Athansian Christianity, to which Constantine I converted his empire. 3Clovis I was born in the year 466, he was the king of the Franks and ruled Gaul for 30 years. 4 It is unknown when he converted to Christianity, however he was baptised in 496. Clovis I was the first Germanic king to convert to Christianity, and while he did not convert his entire state, his conversion was a turning point in Frankish and European history. Behind any conversion, is a reason. For Constantine I, it was an empire coming apart at the seams. For Clovis, it was a need to be more palatable to a mostly Christian populous. While Constantine I ruled the Roman Empire, Christianity became the overriding faith of Rome. 5 While Constantine I had been exposed to Christianity during childhood through his mother, Helena, he was never a true believer.

Parliament voted to negotiate with the King in order to come to a peace agreement, but that was met with a fierce rebuke from Cromwell and his army. In order to kill any hope for the King and to prevent any kind of compromise between the King and Parliament, one hundred and eighty members of Parliament were excluded, and forty five were imprisoned for showing resistance. This act of purging was described simply as a coup d'Г©tat.
