The division between the Court and Country parties was a significant factor in the politics of the time, as it influenced the debates and decisions made in Parliament. The Court party tended to support the King's policies and initiatives, while the Country party often resisted them and sought to assert the power of Parliament.

Throughout the reign of Charles II, the balance of power between the Court and Country parties shifted back and forth, with each faction gaining and losing ground depending on the political climate of the time. However, the division between the two factions remained a defining characteristic of English politics during this period.
