Answer:

Absolutism vs. -Constitutionalism

Step-by-step explanation:

Between 1642 and 1646 Britain engaged in a Civil War propelled by the Monarch, Charles I and those who opposed his policies.

As a Monarch he believed that he had absolute power divinely ordained to rule his people with or without their cooperation. The resulting recklessness progressively developed into a civil war. As he decided to strangle Parliament (which represented, he was rewarded with more opposition. This act also strengthened Parliament to introduce measures against the King.

The aftermath was a series of battles against constituents of Britain during that period.

Absolutism refers to a monarch who exercises absolute autocratic power. Constitutionalism is a system of government that is limited by the rule of law.
