may 8, 1668 - How the CABAL Used there power

Description:

The CABAL used their collective power to influence the king's decisions and push their own political agenda. They played a key role in negotiating the Treaty of Dover with France, which was controversial at the time because it included a secret clause that committed Charles II to convert to Catholicism.

The CABAL also worked to strengthen the king's power and suppress dissent. They were responsible for the establishment of the "Cavalier Parliament," which was characterized by its support for the king and its hostility towards dissenters and religious minorities.

In addition, the CABAL was involved in several significant events of the period, including the Popish Plot, the Exclusion Crisis, and the dissolution of the Cavalier Parliament in 1679. Their use of power was often controversial and contributed to political tensions in England during the reign of Charles II.
