Not really a peel paragraph but hope this helps...

Step-by-step explanation:

Religion was one of the dividing factors in the war: conservitive protestants and Catholics sided with the king and puritans sided with Parliment. Many of the king's supporters abandoned him after he worked to recruit foreign soilders to his cause.
