Answer:

Public support was different

Step-by-step explanation:

During Louis XVI's execution during the French Revolution, the public would support the execution, being of revolutionary sympathy, and though a few counter-revolutions occured in the countryside, in paris, the people largely supported the execution. In Britain it was different. Charles I of England's execution was much less popular, and many viewed it as a matyrdom.
