Answer 1

The events leading to the English Civil War should be placed in the following order: Petition of Right, Charles's imposition of the Church of England on the Scots in 1630, Long Parliament's refusal to fund Charles's wars in 1640, Charles's attempt to arrest parliamentary opponents, and the start of the Civil War in 1642.

Step-by-step explanation:

To place the events leading to the English Civil War in correct order, we first start with the Petition of Right in 1628, where Parliament sets out its demands for constitutional reforms. Then, we see Charles I's attempted imposition of the Church of England on the Scots in 1630, inciting rebellion and leading to Parliament refusing to fund Charles's war effort in Scotland. The next event is the Long Parliament starting in 1640, with Charles repeatedly asking Parliament for money and facing refusal. Charles's struggle with Parliament culminates in 1642 when he tries to arrest his opponents in Parliament, escalating tensions. Finally, with both sides raising armies, the Civil War starts in 1642.

1. Petition of Right
2. 1630 Charles imposes Church of England on Scots
3. 1640 Charles asks Parliament for money, Parliament refuses
4. Charles tries to arrest his opponents in Parliament
5. Civil War starts
