Charles III Predecessors Charles I And Charles II Of England

Charles III Predecessors Charles I And Charles II Of England: "King Charles III": is the address chosen by the new British king. He could have chosen for his other three first names, Philip Arthur or George, but he chose Charles III. Which immediately raises the question: who were his predecessors Charles I and II of England ?

He missed (ignored) the opportunity to engage either the aristocracy or the “people” or both in a transition to a representative rather than monarchal government. That shift from Royal decadence to Puritanism was simply dramatic and deadly to be sustained. Given the choice after his death, a return decadence was the easy decision.

The Stuart dynasty is definitely one of my favourites to study. Originating in Scotland, they came to rule all of modern day UK and Ireland. King James would try to revive absolutism but was fortunate enough to survive. Thank you for this informative video. Charles II "The Merry Monarch" and his brother King James did not receive much of a formal education during their exile and their lax view toward education would be mirrored in the way they educated the future Queen Mary II and Queen Anne but this did not mean they weren't intelligent, it was quite the opposite actually.However, Charles II was real savvy when it came to personal finances and was able to secure a fantastic allowance from France. He is also important to the history of the Quakers, being the one who granted the land to William Penn who established Pennsylvania.

Charles III was named after the Norwegian King Haakon, originally named Karl (Charles) before he became king. He was the grandfather of the current Norwegian king (Harald) and was very dear to Elizabeth II. Haakon was the brother of the Danish king Christian, and both Haakon, Christian, and Elizabeth share parents or grandparents. Charles III name has nothing to do with his namesakes in British history.

It’s the name by which he has always been known. King Philip would be far more more dubious if you want to look at the history of English kings.

King Philip was also king of Spain and presided over the Spanish Inquisition, and later sent the Spanish Amanda against England.

@@brontewcat I was surprised he didn’t choose George VII as his regnal name, too. But his parents probably knew what they were doing when they chose to call him Charles - and although the relationship between him and his father was noticeably fraught on occasion, Charles would certainly have taken his mother’s guidance. Still, the earlier Charles’ set a pretty terrible example of kingship - both of them were theologically wobbly in a time when Catholicism was the 17th C equivalent to communism today. Charles I was so insensitive to the opinion of commoners that they eventually cut his head off, while Charles II was a Trump-like philanderer who filled a London suburb (Fitzrovia) with his illegitimate offspring, involved himself in dodgy deals with Catholic France (Vlad Putin not having been born yet) and did a deathbed conversion to Popery. Not what the British expected of the head of the Church of England. Charles III will have to spend the rest of his days on his best behaviour if the British Monarchy is to survive.

What’s the connection of Charles lll with Charles I and Charles ll ?

[@TheKingsofFrance]

Specify what you want to know ? Obviously they were his predecessors, but what information are you specifically looking for ?

[@benharis1956]

Charles iii is descended from Elizabeth Electress of Palatinate & Queen of Bohemia, daughter of James I of England. Elizabeth daughter was Sophia of Hanover, from where The German line began. Towards Victoria. So Charles I was Elizabeth of Palatinate brother, that's the CONNECTION.

Charles I believed in the divine right of kings but had not the political savvy of his father James I, who believed the same things. Charles was so heavy handed in his seeking to maintain this divine right that they killed him Charles II was a debauch. I would have thought that given the unfortunate history of previous kings of England named Charles that the son of Queen Elizabeth II would have chosen a different name, and one less unlucky . But he had been known as Charles for so long that maybe it was not practical I was a zealous monarchist for over 40 years but it dissolved last year. But i am also a history buff well versed in British royal history. I wrote this before watching this video

He had psychological problems fits of violence he nearly killed, a man named Vaughan in a duel he killed a man named Nathaniel Konny he was at some point convicted of manslaughter but pleaded privilege of peerage and got away he even assaulted Charles Sackville 6th Earl of Dorset with whom he was engaged in a lawsuit. He was a suspect for the killing of a certain Edmund Godfrey. His last murder was a certain army officer named William Smith but remarkably he was granted a royal pardon by King Charles II after a petition petition signed by 24 of his fellow peers. He died in 29 August 1683

Some people including Professor John Morill from Cambridge University believe that The Wynn family of Gwydir castle in the Conwy Valley in North Wales are probably the very first family to get the hereditary title of Baronette bad thing is that it stays in the main family for only 4 generations the last baronette was Ser Richard Wynn The Younger after his death the title went to John Wynn 10th son of the first baronette Old Ser John because Ser Richard Wynn The Younger had no sons he and his wife Lady Sarah daughter to Ser Thomas Myddelton only had 1 daughter the lovely Lady Mary ho was married by her grandmother Lady Grace to Robert Bertie the later Duke of Ancaster and Kastevan Lady Grace Wynn herself was a daughter to Hugh Williams and so a niece to John Williams the Archbishop of York

If You just Google what colour was King James, the links are there? There are also links to the black abundance channel. Many decendants sent into slavery were actually from Scotland, and have links to the 12 th and 13 th century, long before the English invaded Scotland? White people were not put in slavery in Barbados, in 1815? Black Scottish noblemen were! 😳

I was surprised at Charles III in the light of history. But a correction Charles and Charles ii were kings of the the UK not England. his mum illustrates the difference - Queen Elizabeth of the UK; Queen Elizabeth ii of England.

[@TheKingsofFrance]

Thank you very much for watching and commenting. I apologize for the inaccuracy.

[@ds1868]

No. The UK did not exist in the 17th century. Charles I and II were separately kings of Engkand Scotland and Ireland. Each country was Sovereign with their own Parliaments. England and Scotland had their own coronation ceremonies. Look up the details, the presenter of this video is completely correct.

[@AML2000]

As has been pointed out, England and Scotland were completely separate countries during the reigns of the Charleses. Scotland united with England in 1707, at which point the country was known as Great Britain. In 1801, Ireland was incorporated into the single kingdom, and only then was the United Kingdom born.

His predecessor, Edward IV was illegitimate, as declared by the mother. His line is Disqualified, Henry VIII down the line.

[@TheKingsofFrance]

I know there's a Channel 4 documentary presented by 'Baldrick' out there which goes into detail about that. They claim that the 'genuine' king lives in Austratia if I'm not mistaken...

[@ds1868]

There is no conclusive proof that Edward IV was illegitimate. Either way it doesn't matter. The Act of Settlement (1701) clearly states that only the descendants of the Electress Sophia of Hanover may ascend the Throne. All other lines are excluded, including all the other shady Plantagenet lines of descent. And that is the end of that.

[@johnmonk3381]

Do you even know your stuff? Edward IV was predecessor to none of the Charles mentioned in this video. Edward VI's successor was his own brother Richard, the notorious king who allegedly murdered his nephews to claim the throne for himself. He didn't meet a good end either as he was killed in the battle of bosworth by Henry vii
