Which was a cause of the English Civil War?
laiz [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. A cause of the English Civil War was a dispute between the King and Parliament.

Explanation:

The English Civil War was the process of transition of England from an absolute monarchy to a bourgeois republic between 1640-1660, which ended with the death of Protector Cromwell and the restoration of the monarchy.

The revolution took the form of a conflict between the executive and legislative powers (the King against Parliament), resulting in a civil war, as well as a religious war between Anglicans, Catholics and the vacillating Scottish Puritans on the one hand, and English Puritans on the other.  

The first civil war began on August 22, 1642, when Charles I ordered his banner to be raised above Nottingham Castle, and the war ended in 1646, when Cromwell created the “New Model Army”, which won a decisive victory in the battle of Nesby.  

The Civil War ended in a complete victory for Parliament. The revolution paved the way for the industrial revolution in England and the capitalist development of the country.
