Charles I

Charles I (19 November 1600 - 30 January 1649) was King of England, Scotland and Ireland from 27 March 1625, until his death. He famously argued with Parliament, some who feared that he was attempting to gain absolute power as he believed in the divine right of kings, which eventually lead to the English Civil War. He was eventually executed for treason by the Rump Parliament (The Roundheads).
