26.09.2025 13:04 β π 4 π 2 π¬ 0 π 0Yeah, but the Roundheads were fighting more for Puritan religious fanaticism than for democracy as witnessed in part by their appointed of the Lord Protector.
They were better than the Cavaliers, but their cause was only marginally better.
And they supported the guy who named himself "Lord Protector," ruled as a dictatorial absolutist, and attempted to leave his "protectorship" to his son when he died.
