Cromwell

Oliver Cromwell is a devout Puritan, a country squire, magistrate and former member of Parliament. Charles I of England's policies, including the enclosing of common land for the use of wealthy landowners and the introduction of "Popish" and "Romish" rituals into the Church of England have become increasingly grating to many, including Cromwell. In fact Charles regards himself as a devout Anglican, permitting his Henrietta Maria of France to practise Roman Catholicism in private but forbidding her to bring up the young Charles II of England in that faith. Cromwell plans to take his family to the New World, but, on the eve of their departure, he is persuaded by his friends to stay and resume a role in politics.
