they are restricted to only matters the monarch presents them with. Even though parliament is showing more power it is only at the request of the monarch they can assert it and this could be very rarely as Elizabeth only called parliament 13 times during 45 years. There is also evidence in the sources that challenges the theory there was a steady increase in parliaments power. Parliaments power varied greatly with each monarch. Queen Elizabeth liked to keep parliament

power could be just as important as power itself. If courtiers participated in the various performances of the court, they had the potential to gain significant amounts of influence and prestige. These types of courtly performances were shared by monarchs, courtiers and lesser figures albeit in sometimes very distinct manners.

However Charles’ view of himself, his early reign was plagued with predestined horror, and his eventual implemented policies would rarely benefit anyone; at times, he himself received no advance from his primarily

Elizabeth 1 To the best of my understanding Elizabeth I and later the English Monarchs with regard to religious uniformity, believed in, and were in search of a religious settlement that would bring peace for all the people.

The 2010 critically acclaimed film “The Kings Speech” aimed to showcase the struggles of King George VI as he dealt with his stammer and becoming King.
