The '''English Civil War''' (or '''Wars''', as they are often broken into three or four [[war]]s) was a very complex conflict. No over-simplified "[[Roundhead]]s vs. [[Cavalier]]s" explaination will make much sense of the events in the 1640's and through late 1650's. |
|||
Some people put part of the blame for the ECW on the nearly-finished [[30 Years War]] in [[Europe]]. In many ways it would have been strange for [[England]] to not become involved in this massive [[Catholic]] vs [[Protestant]] conflict that severely depopulated portions of Europe and established what many historians consider to be the era of "modern" warfare. |
