dec 16, 1653 - Oliver Cromwell takes power

Description:

Cromwell took power as "Lord Protector of the Common Wealth of England, Scotland, and Ireland" after the execution of King Charles I. This is significant because it basically gave parliament all the power for once, but since the Puritans literally suck it doesn't last too long.
