Question 28 • World History and Geography

Why, after having dissolved Parliament, did Charles I call it back into session?

Answer
A
to punish its leaders
B
to get it to raise funds to crush a rebellion
C
to force it to sign the Petition of Right
D
to have it name Oliver Cromwell as Lord Protector

Explanation

Charles I recalled Parliament in 1640 because he needed money to fight a rebellion in Scotland. Parliament had been dissolved earlier, but the military conflict made it difficult for him to raise funds without its approval. The correct choice is “to get it to raise funds to crush a rebellion.”
