In this lesson , we talked about struggle between The Monarchy and The Parliament . Charles I failed and Civil War begun.
Oliver Cromwell was the commander of The Parliament army . It is called Interregnum Period . After Charles I beheaded , the mood of the people changed in favour of the King. Cromwell ruled as a dictator. I think , it is not useful for society. If there is a King or President ,he can not manage the government or society as a dictator.
