Final answer:

Charles I and the events of the English Civil War

Step-by-step explanation:

The events can be arranged in the following chronological order:

  1. Charles I ruled without Parliament for 11 years.
  2. Charles I convened Parliament to raise taxes to crush a revolt in Scotland.
  3. Charles I accepted the Petition of Right.
  4. Supporters of Charles I, the Royalists, engaged in a civil war with the Roundheads, supporters of Parliament.
  5. The Roundheads defeated the Royalists and England became a commonwealth.

During this time, the English Civil War took place from 1642 to 1649, and it pitted the king and his Royalist supporters against Oliver Cromwell and his Parliamentary forces. After years of fighting, the Parliamentary forces gained the upper hand, and in 1649, they charged Charles I with treason and beheaded him.
