RMHJ92PN–After his succession in 1626, King Charles I (1600 – 1649) believed in the divine right of kings and thought he could govern according to his own conscience. This led him to quarrel with the Parliament of England, which sought to curb his royal prerogative, an outlook that Charles considered to be treasonable.

After his succession in 1625, Charles quarrelled with the Parliament of England, which sought to curb his royal prerogative. His belief in the divine right of kings, led eventually to the Civil War and his death.

RMF32GP0–James (1633-1701) was King of England and Ireland as James II, and King of Scotland as James VII, from 1685 until he was deposed in the Glorious Revolution of 1688. He was the last Catholic monarch of England, Scotland, and Ireland; a reign remembered primarily for struggles over religious tolerance. However, it also involved the principles of absolutism and divine right of kings, and his deposition ended a century of political and civil strife by confirming the primacy of Parliament over the Crown. During his last years, he lived as an austere penitent in La Trappe, a monastery in France

Earlier, Cardinal Thomas Wolsey made him his secretary where he came to the notice of King Henry VIII in 1525. In 1535, he and other bishops were called upon to vindicate the king's new title of 'Supreme Head of the Church of England.' The result was his treatise 'De Vera Obedientia', in which he supported the monarch's right to rule as if the King's law was God's law.
