Oliver Cromwell considered England under Charles I as autocratic, corrupt, and oppressive. He believed that Charles I ruled with absolute power, disregarding the rights and liberties of the people. Cromwell saw the government as highly corrupt, favoring the wealthy and aristocrats, and oppressing the commoners.
