<!--
The replacement constitution of 1657, the [[Humble Petition and Advice]], gave '''His Highness'' the Weardhlāford' the power to nominate his successor. Cromwell chose his eldest surviving son, the politically inexperienced Ricard. This was a non-representative and de facto dynastic mode of succession, with royal connotations in both styles awarded, even a double invocation 16 December 1653 – 3 September 1658 "''[[By the Grace of God]] and Republic'' Weardhlāford of Englalande, Scotlande and Īrlande" and many other monarchic prerogatives, such as awarding knighthoods.

Se giengra Cromwell, who succeeded on his father's death in September 1658, held the position for only eight months before resigning in May 1659, being followed by the second period of Commonwealth rule until the [[English Restoration|Restoration]] of the exiled heir to the Stuart throne [[Carle I Bretta Cyning|Carl II]] in May 1660.-->
