Determine whether each description applies to the royalists, roundheads, or both
Rom4ik [11]

-Puritans and member of lower classes: The roundheads

-Supporters of Charles I: The royalists (also known as "Cavaliers")

-Fought in the English civil war: Both of them (They were the main two sides on the civil war)

-Wore richly decorated clothing: The royalists (Even though this wasn't the prime objective, they became well known for this)

-Led by Oliver Cromwell: The roundheads.

-Were aristrocats: The royalists

-Emerged victorious in the civil war: The roundheads.


Explanation: The English civil war was a series of three main armed and political conflicts. Before the English civil war and it's outcome, the Parliament of England hadn't had a big influence on the goverment system. In fact, the Parliament didn't have the authority to make any desition and their role was only to advice the King and only after the monarch himself summoned them and even more important, the King had the power to disolve it at his will. This was due to the belief that the monarch is designated by God and, therefore, he's the only one capable of ruling his land.

This historical context provoced that some members of the society, specially puritans and lower class members, started to look for a change. The objective was simple: to give the Parliament the authority to participate and make desitions. They suported the Parliament and the idea of having a role on the goverment desitions, they started to repudiate what they considered to be "royalist" or courtly fashion (to wear decorated clothing, the use of long ringlets, etc.). For this reason they decided not only to wear their common clothes but also to closely crop their hair, therefore,<em> this people, whose leade was Oliver Cromwell, were called "roundheads"</em> by some higher classes in an act of derision.

On the other hand, the royalists supported the King (Charles I) and the idea of absolute power for the monarch, most of them were aristrocats. Both sides adopted the nicknames given by the other side, nicknames that were originated from the mockery ("Roundheads" and "Cavaliers")

The outcome of the civil war was:

- The execution of King Charles I.

- The exile of the King's son.

- The monarch can't gover without the Parliament consent.
