Charles I sparked the Civil War after attempting to diminish parliamentary power and revert the Church of England to Catholic practices. After the Civil War, Charles II was put into power.

James II made it clear that he would return to the ways of Charles I by using monarchal power to invalidate the laws of Parliament. In short time, Parliament rose up against James II.
