English solider and statesman Oliver Cromwell (1599-1658) was elected to Parliament in 1628 and 1640. The outspoken Puritan helped organize armed forces after the outbreak of civil war in 1642, serving as deputy commander of the âNew Model Armyâ that decimated the main Royalist force at the 1645 Battle of Naseby.
He also lived life as King, and many saw him as King. He gave radical orders. After Oliver Cromwell became the Lord Protector he banned many things, such as Christmas, working on Sundays, the Christmas turkey, football and dancing round the maypole, just because of his 'puritan' belief. He also closed parliament, and took away 50 MP's that he didn't like.
