Charles I's power trip had to end... but that was a slightly over-the-top conclusion to come to. He did help create the modern idea of Britain - but in the end, his Irish adventure, which was driven by this puritanism (who regarded the Irish catholics as just below dogs), did him in. He was filled with the same misplaced messiah complex as was his predecessor.
Should be sent down the historical river for given the Puritans any kind of foothold anywhere.
