After the death of King James I of England, his second son, Charles I, ruled (his eldest son, Henry Frederick, had predeceased him) from March 1625 until his execution on January 30, 1649, following two Civil Wars (1642-45 and 1648-49). England then became a republic, under Cromwell, until 1660, when the monarchy was restored and Charles II (son of Charles I) became King and reigned until his death in 1685. He was succeeded by his brother, James II / VII (1685-88).
