Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
The religious dissension in England during the first half of the seventeenth century resulted in a civil war, known as the English Civil War or the Puritan Revolution, which lasted from 1642 to 1651. The war was fought between the supporters of King Charles I (who favored an Anglican form of Protestantism) and the Parliamentarians (who were predominantly Puritan and wished to reform the Church of England). The war resulted in the death of the king and the establishment of a Commonwealth under the leadership of Oliver Cromwell.
