In this first episode of what I'm calling "Treason Fest 2023", we're looking at the one time that Britain has successfully ridded itself of its royal family. Buckle-up for the story of Charles I, Oliver Cromwell and the English Revolution. Support the channel on Patreon at https://patreon.com/tomnicholas Thanks for watching!
