@@TandemTriumphans Cromwell was worse than a coward. I may not be Irish, but I will never forgive him for killing innocent Irishmen. He said that their deaths in Wexford was: "a righteous judgment from God." Maybe the fact that he died before the Restoration was also a righteous judgment for him killing innocent people. Charles I may have deserved to lose his head, but the Irish, Scots, and Welsh did not deserve to suffer as they did.
@@mikeor- Charles did not deserve to lose his head, when you look into it his assertion of the monarchys power was only cause he saw the threat of an ascending parliament. He saw the threat a corrupt parliament could be and tried to layout the authority to the monarch in true and recognised terms to cement parliament as serving at the monarchs and nations behest which they rejected. Parliament obviously felt threatened as previous times when they had become unruly James I and Charles I had both dissolved them to govern alone, had the King had enough funds alone to govern he would have done so effectively. But he was forced to recall them cementing the power of Parliament in their minds over the King and seeing themselves as more than his equal in the holding of temporal power. And thus when Parliament declared the law of it is treason to attack Parliament, they had a cassus belli to remove Charles I then claiming what he did was unconstitutional whilst secretly hiding their own expanding power to surpass the crown. It is why I weep at the current state of Parliament and the Monarchy. Both run by fools. Vive le Jacques deux.
@@callumwynne5370 Charles I did not deserve to die, but there is a reason why no absolute monarchies exist today. My great-great-grandfather was not allowed to work because he was Jewish, and my grandpa had to change his last name in order to get a job. When monarchs can dictate who can and cannot have a job, that is one thing that should not be allowed to happen.
Lol, I can't speak for the people here in this video. But I will say a lot of people are taking that Netflix show, "The Crown" as historical fact. When it shouldn't be. And that show portrays Charles as a monster.l that abuses his poor Princess Diana 🙄
Charles I lost his head. Charles II preferred throwing wild parties rather than ruling the country. Bonnie Prince Charlie lost everything in the Battle of Culloden. Since none of the Charles' were good kings, many people thought that the current King would choose to reign as George VII instead of Charles III. He did not, thankfully, and now we have a Charles III who has the potential to do something right for once.
I am not a Catholic yet instead a Protestant and I side with Charles the 1st. Catholics are fellow Christians and when it goes to parliament it was evil for promoting disunity among fellow Christians when instead Christians should be working together. I am an American monarchist who happens to like the economic system fascism uses.
I am nominally Protestant and I attended Catholic Mass for a while this year because I have a lot in common with traditional Catholics (and think the true King was forced out in 1688 and everyone since is an imposter). Sadly the Catholic Church has serious issues as well, it seems like it has been taken over by the same forces that brought us the Russian, English, French etc. revolutions. I don't have any answers because it can be a little overwhelming and I find it very sad. So I just live the best life I can one day at a time.
@@neilwhitaker6284 which nation are you from? If you are wondering why I am not Catholic it is because my father was adopted and also because I hate associating myself with Rome.
@@sethfrisbie3957 I was born in England, raised and live in Canada (Canadian citizen). I wasn't really wondering it seemed normal to me because all the Churches right now seem in a very bad and sick place and there is nothing really attractive about them in my opinion. I don't even know if they're even Christian (but I can be critical). Some Orthodox seems to be hanging in there but none of those near me. Interesting about Rome but I think it was a pretty awesome Empire and state. However there were periods where they had some oppressive blood thirsty emperors.
Regardless of Puritin obsession, Charles was never Catholic in that sence, nor did he seek reunion with Rome. His vision for the church in The Three Kingdoms was High Church Anglicanism with a side of Armenianism.

Another great organ part 3:28 : "Depressed; oppressed; assailed with woes! Dear Charles, your people be."
Another great Royalist song!
Glory to the King and Monarchy
Another Great Song
Thanks for uploading
I was on autoplay and this started playing after I was absentmindedly listening to a candy documentary. This grabbed my attention!
Amazing song! One of the first Strawhead songs I've listened to.
Glorious
Does anyone know what he means when hes talking about caitiff?
Caitiff is an old word for coward. In the context of the song, Charles I is referring to Oliver Cromwell as a coward.
Caitif is synonymous for coward :)

I notice a lot of people in the replies are upset with Charles III. Why is that?

I hate him for being illegitimate, being not a true Stuart monarch.
@@adamoneil5317 Well, he was unfaithful to her.
No?@@haroldgōdwinessunu
@@ZephyrTM101 They're going based off the belief that Bonnie Prince Charlie under the Jacobite cause was Charles III.
If this song was written by a royalist, after Charles the first was killed, how was it written safely?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

@@Hermaeusmora5042 Elizabeth II is the best British monarch, by a long shot. That was the last time our monarch was good.
Charles II was literally the best English king of the XVII century.
I'd say The Charlies are my favourites! They had beliefs and convictions which they thought for.
Charles II was an incredible monarch
@@olekcholewa8171 How does killing innocent Frenchmen after the Great Fire of London make Charles II the best King of the seventeenth century?

Most Protestants arent Christian.
