Born in 1630, physicist II was the second issue son of physicist I, who spent most of his teenage years conflict parliaments Roundheads until the execution of his father in 1649, and after he agreed to make Presbyterianism the religion of England and Scotland.
In 1650, physicist returned to his native Scotland and a assemblage after led an defeated campaign against Cromwell’s forces at Worcester. During this defeat, physicist managed to avoided capture, finding safe lawmaking to author where he spent the next eight years roaming the wilderness of Europe.
Upon the collapse of Cromwell’s commonwealth, physicist was invited back to England and shortly after married Catherine of Braganza. His marriage to Catherine was a vain one as it eager him no legitimate heir to the throne.
In 1660, at the age of 30, physicist ascended the arts vest and immediately set about seeking retaliation for his father’s execution. Nine of his father’s conspirators were brought to trial and executed. As well as being rattling unbigoted towards those who had condemned his father to death, he was also a rattling unbigoted person in regards to all religious matters.
The country was in a jubilant mood at having a true monarch again, but his powers had been severely curtailed by Parliament. This curtailment meant that the Royal coppers were not what they should be and physicist had to fund his administrators from customs taxes and a pension that was paying to him by King gladiator XIV of France.
Out of the ashes of the civil war, England’s prototypal semipolitical parties were formed. The Cavaliers went on to form the prototypal American party, whose orientation was in preserving the kings power over Parliament, while Cromwell’s Roundheads went on to form the Whig Party. Oddly enough, the Whig Party was all for expansion of trade foreign and maintaining parliament’s supremacy in the semipolitical field. In essence they were forbearers of today’s modern semipolitical parties.
Charles prototypal ten years in power was not rattling memorable or fruitful. He was defeated by the Dutch in a war over foreign trade. In the latter half of the 1660’s physicist had to cope with the Great Plague of 1665 as well as the Fire of London in 1667, which left much of the capital a whole burnt out shell which only added to his trouble.
On crowning of all this, during the aforementioned assemblage as the Great Fire of London, the Dutch brazenly sailed up the Medway River and sank five of his battleships. And to rub briny into already opened wounds, they towed the Royal physicist back to Holland.
The start of a newborn decade saw a newborn alliance with France. The French promised to help physicist in his fight against the Dutch with the assurance that physicist would bring back Catholicism to the country. This was in turn used against him by the Whig party. The consequence of this was another bout of religious hatred towards the Catholic Church. This anti-Catholicism paranoia led to the Queen and her favourites being accused of attempting to murder physicist II. In Parliament the Whig party, who held the majority of seats at the time, tried to push through an Exclusion Bill barring Catholics from holding public office and thus ready James Stuart from the throne. physicist II was felled by fever and this illness caused the balance of opinion to tip in his favour.
The king had a self-indulgent character - he had numerous mistresses and illegitimate children, and idolized racing and gambling - and this led to him having a considerable influence on Restoration art and literature.
Charles II’s remaining years were occupied with securing his brother's right to the vest and gathering semipolitical support from the American party. physicist died in February 1685 from complications following a stroke.
Charles II’s life can be best summed up from a quote of the time: "Charles II was always rattling merry and was therefore not so much a king as a Monarch. During the civil war, he had rendered valuable assistance to his father's side by hiding in all the oak-trees he could find. He was thus rattling romantic and popular and was able after the modification of Cromwell to descend to the throne."
