 | | Charles denied the legality of the court and refused to plead. | | | Charles convoked and dissolved three Parliaments in four years because they refused to comply with his arbitrary measures including the demand that his subjects pay for military expenditures and imprisoning those who did not pay. | | | In 1641 Charles agreed to bills abolishing the prerogative courts, prohibiting arbitrary taxation, and ensuring that this Parliament would not be dissolved without its own permission. |

| | Charles governed without Parliament for 11 years after 1629, which were marked by popular opposition to strict enforcement of the practices of the Established Church by Archbishop William Laud and to the ingenious if disingenuous devices employed by the government to obtain funds. | | | Unable to wage war effectively, Charles in May, 1640, summoned the so-called Short Parliament, which demanded redress of grievances before granting funds and was dissolved. | | | Forced to call Parliament again in 1628, he was compelled to agree to the Petition of Right, in return for a badly needed subsidy. |

| | The Kingdom of England was first unified as a state by Athelstan of Wessex. | | | Regicides of Charles I are considered the 59 Commissioners who formed the tribunal that tried King Charles I of England and signed his death warrant. | | | In order to punish those who refused to conform to the religious norms established by the Church of England he used the two most feared and most arbitrary courts in the land, the Court of High Commission and the Court of Star Chamber. |

| | Charles refused to plead, saying that he did not recognise the legality of the High Court (it had been established by a Commons purged of dissent, and without the House of Lords - nor had the Commons ever acted as a judicature). | | | In the first four years of his rule, Charles was faced with the alternative of either obtaining parliamentary funding and having his policies questioned by argumentative Parliaments who linked the issue of supply to remedying their grievances, or conducting a war without subsidies from Parliament. | | | Charles dismissed his fourth Parliament in March 1629 and decided to make do without either its advice or the taxes which it alone could grant legally. |

| | In 1672, Charles issued the Declaration of Indulgence, in which he purported to suspend all laws punishing Roman Catholics and other religious dissenters. | | | Two further Parliaments were called in Charles' reign (one in 1680, the other in 1681), but both were dissolved because they sought to pass the Exclusion Bill. | | | For the remainder of his reign, Charles ruled as an absolute monarch, without a Parliament. |

| | That is to say, one may reasonably ask of a government that it establish justice in the land; so that judges do not take bribes, so that innocent men are not convicted of crimes, while the guilty are convicted and punished, so that honest men need fear neither robbers nor the sheriff. | | | "No man in England is a better friend to liberty than myself, but I must tell you plainly that the liberty of subjects consists not in having a hand in the government, but in having that government, and those laws, whereby their lives and their goods may be most their own." | | | One may further ask that taxes be not excessive, and that punishments be not disproportionate to the crime. |

| | King and Parliament again reached no agreement; Charles foolishly tried to arrest five members of Parliament on the advice of Henrietta Maria, which brought matters to a head. | | | Three times summoned and three times dissolved through 1625-1629, Parliament went the next 11 years without being summoned, as Charles financed his reign by selling commercial monopolies and extracting ship money (a fee demanded from towns for building naval warships). | | | Charles inherited the incessant financial problems of his father: the refusal of Parliament to grant funds to a king who refused to address the grievances of the nobility. |

| | Charles, however, was less successful in handling domestic problems, and his long feud with Parliament erupted in the English Civil Wars (1642-49), which he lost and for which he lost his head. | | | He was influential in expanding England's colonial possessions, serving as the first king over the royal colony of Virginia, and granting charters for Massachusetts Bay, Maryland, and the Carolinas. | | | His son and heir, Charles, would be recalled from exile and the monarchy restored in 1660, following an 11-year reign by Oliver Cromwell and Puritan colleagues. |

| | BABY CHARLES became KING CHARLES THE FIRST, in the twenty-fifth year of his age. | | | Now, you are to understand that King Charles the First - of his own determination to be a high and mighty King not to be called to account by anybody, and urged on by his Queen besides - deliberately set himself to put his Parliament down and to put himself up. | | | Hence, the people soon came to dislike her, and she soon came to dislike them; and she did so much all through this reign in setting the King (who was dotingly fond of her) against his subjects, that it would have been better for him if she had never been born. |
