The authority of Parliament over the head of state was a key issue, and the underlying issues about the rights of democracy in England. First, Cromwell was a defender of Parliament, and then closed it when it disagree with him. Religious Freedom was the other main issue, first Oliver Cromwell tried to free people from a catholic despot, and then tried to impose his own religion's belief on the masses. He became the evil he was trying to fight.

The English civil war came about because King Charles thought that Kings should have absolute power. That is the right to make decisions for the country that must be obeyed and cannot be questioned.

One of the biggest fears that the people had was that King Charles, who married a French Princess who was a Catholic, would return England to the Catholic Religion.
