@@svensebastian2712 There was an interesting paper written a while back called the rebel ancestors of Queen Elizabeth II . Its about the Lyon side of the family that broke with support of the Stuart kings . Looks like I come from a long line of hell raisers , I also have an ancestor that was with Washington at Trenton during the war of independence. Same sir name . Another grandfather . Thank you for your kind words
Cromwell for awhile during the English civil war was living at Glamis castle so they say in Scotland , which has been the ancestral home of the Lyon family since the 14th century . My ancestor John Lyon married Robert Bruce's granddaughter . QE2 mother was born there .Her name was Elizabeth Bowes Lyon . Thats the connection
@@Grock66 Historical records both in Scotland , England and in the US. Because of the connection to the royal family lots of research has been done . I can’t take any credit for any of it .Most of it was all recorded centuries ago. Interesting to learn about the family that came before us and were there when history was being made .
Thank you for a brilliant synopsis of King Charles I reign History has fragility Where would England be now if Charles I agreed to compromise with Parliament? Where would Europe be today? How different is Charles I from John of 300 years prior? English royalty is fascinating on so many levels, as it has survived till this day
Thank you for an Amazing program. I enjoyed your narrative n the way you explain things (wish you were my teacher at high school) . N thank you for saying " I hope you enjoyed the program " n I did.... You gave me a lift n smile
Cromwell also banished thousands of Irish as, the first, slaves on the plantations in the Caribbean. The English will say that the Irish weren't slaves but were indentured servants and had signed contracts. The contracts have never been found.
Charles loved his time in newcastle lol he was enjoying his golf break in a fortified city so much he gave my city its motto -Fortiter Defendit Triumphans (Triumphing by Brave Defence . ❤🖤 ⚪
James VI of Scotland did not become James I of England, Scotland and Ireland. He remained King James VI of Scotland for his entire reign until his death, though he liked to style himself "James, King of Great Britain, France and Ireland".
Charles the second may have promised not to take vengence on those who killed his father, but many of those who signed his father's death warrant were hanged, drawn and quartered.
A superb pair of documentaries presenting this complex period of history, which I never had a chance to study at school. It is hard to get your head round Cromwell's level of religious zeal nearly 400 years after these events. It's almost is if he took pleasure in killing his opponents. It is a shame that some sort of compromise could not have been reached between Cromwell and the defeated King and the Royalists. Thanks for posting these fascinating history programmes.
What Cromwell's armies did in Ireland is not 'open to debate'. They slaughtered hundreds of thousands of the Irish, men, women and children. Castles and towns that resisted his armies were promised safety if they surrendered but were slaughtered as soon as they did so. The only 'debate' comes from the English denying the atrocities, as they have always done throughout history, right up to the 1920s and Bloody Sunday in 1972.
I don't come away from this thinking all that highly of either man. Charles I seems to have thought that he could do whatever he wanted, because God put him in his position, leading him to do a bunch of stupid stuff. It sounds like he wasn't anywhere near as bad as someone like Richard II (who also thought that he could do pretty much whatever he wanted, because God made him king), but there isn't a lot good to say about him either - at least not based on this video. Oliver Cromwell, on the other hand, seems to have been a religious zealot who thought that it was okay to punish and kill those who didn't agree with his religious views, leading him to do plenty of terrible stuff too - and arguably worse than Charles I. That being said, it sounds like he was at least trying to do the right thing. Unfortunately, he had some screwed up ideas about what the "right thing" was. Obviously, ultimately, we can't really judge them properly, because we don't fully understand them or their circumstances (that will have to be left up to God), so I don't want to be too harsh towards them, but I really can't think particularly positively about them based on what I do know either.
I would say that they were both religious zealots who allowed their faith's to dictate their actions, and history has not been kind to either of them. Trying to impose your religious beliefs, (or lack of them) onto others is always going to be a recipe for disaster.
Well considering some of the basic principles of English common law that we hold dear came from the commonwealth its often overlooked just how much we owe to them...like the right to remain silent, the fact that kings are not divinely appointed and the principle that no one is above the law. And much of the principles that the founding fathers held dear came from Locke who based a lot of his whig philosophy on the state that cromwell, fairfax et al espoused.
@@AJCavalier I understand your point. However my understanding is that even after Magna Carta the idea of kings being divinely appointed and above the law was still widely accepted. If you read the defence that Charles I offered when he deigned to speak, it was all about the court having no validity as he was above such considerations. Unless i am incorrect that trial was the first time such a principle...i.e. even the monarch being subject to the law of the land was tested in the coursts?
@@colingradwell1939 the only two monarchs who really bought into the idea of divine right, and that used it as an argument, were Charles and James I. My point is, the rule of law, at that time, was an old idea, divine right was not.
The Virginia colony declared their loyalty to the king and offered him a crown which he turned down. Their loyalty however, put them in good stead when Charles II came into his own again. Ironic.
My Ancestor Hugh De Hynton and John Hynton we’re close friends with George Villaries and also John I believe was the physician for Charles 2 pre exile.
Cromwell was no better than Hitler, committed genocide, torture and invented concentration camps, where children, women and the elderly were tortured, abused and starved, a vile man, rats and vipers are better.
This all points to the divisive power of religion and politics. How people can be united against what they see as a common enemy but once removed yhe in squabbling begins. Yhis proves man's inability to rule himself despite the good intention.
Studying the amazing size of the medical armies, it surprises me that there were enough citizens left to function in the countries. IF YOU TAKE THOUSANDS OF LOCALS TO FIGHT IN THESE CIVIL CONFLICTS, the populations would be constantly left with a shortage of farmers and craftspeople
I must say that I have to strongly dislike Charles I for his shortsighted obstinance and arrogance because it resulted in so much death and misery. At the same time, even though I try to never hate, I come close to total hatred for Cromwell as well. Being of Irish descent I have to hate the racial/ethnic hatred of the Puritans that was directed at the Irish Catholics. Of course, both groups perpetrated atrocities against each other with great fervor. It is unfortunate that they were never able to arrive at a policy of toleration. But it required a modern sensibility for religious toleration to become reality. I can't contenance any faith that can excuse slavery and use it as a method of political control.
14:15 you say that like they’ve come up with adequate medical treatment for kidney stones. Surgically speaking this would be true. However, treating them is still a mystery. Preventing them is an enigma nobody can solve.

@@kellyshomemadekitchen Oh I don't know have you looked at the state of the black community anywhere in the world, have you had a look at Africa? Lol use your brain woman.
We were taught that The War of the Roses, also known as The Cousins' War (consisting of numerous battles) was the 1st English Civil War. Why is this Stuart Civil War referred to as the 1st Civil War? It's clearly not. English people turned on each other and killed each other in both instances. This is my definition of civil war.
Charles I entire record proves him to be, the 'Man Of Blood'. And even though Parliament were willing to work with him, he still retained his absolutist habits. And for all his cheating, plots against his own people, we STILL ended up with a form of state first suggested by Parliament.
Charles I was an awful king, who annoyed all three of his kingdoms. Cromwell was a great military leader and despite the Ireland campaign was a great man overall.
@@Trecesolotienesdos It was a conquest of land of a people who were belligerent towards us, besides whatever "atrocities" committed back then was the norm. Every great conqueror has committed atrocities of one kind or another, it's part of war.
You must be a Trump supporter! Charles I was a fanatical tyrant believing in self supreme rule only! Just because other rulers may have followed this idea doesn't mean they were right. They were all tyrants. Charles I had every chance to save himself but was too pigheaded. He was a perpetual threat to the realms as long as he kept his head thus its removal was just. Too bad certain predecessors didn't get the same official state treatment (John I, Richard III, Henry VIII for starters)
There can be no doubt on which side God was: On the side of him who never lost a battle. Also, God bore witness to which is the true Christian faith, when he blew the Spanish armada ashore in 1588, when they were sent out to conquour Britain back under Anti-christ in Rome. I trust Christ will ever continue to give unto his people leaders and warriors to push back that rump king in Rome: such a warrior was he who cried out: ULSTER SAYS NOOOOOO!
First time I ve been dissatisfied with an episode.. the explanation of the political situation for the first time was poor. Bare bones parliament was completely different from the rump parliament. No mention of why parliaments kept exploding. Recruiter elections threatened to allow a parliament to self perpetuate. . To name but a few. However I will say it's truly a first and maybe not fair as I'm a postgrad history researcher. The biographies of 18 19 and 20th century figures was superb
