People called Oliver Cromwell greedy when he refused the crown because they believed that he wanted to hold absolute power and feared that he would become a dictator. They saw his refusal as a strategic move to consolidate power and gain more control over the government. Additionally, Cromwell was known for his ambition and desire for power, which further fueled these beliefs.
Olive Cromwell wouldn't help the king coz he did not like the king coz his wife was catholic and cromwell thought she would turn england and scotland catholic
Oliver Cromwell was a puritan but he didn't let other people play games and he didn't let the church bells to be rung. Oliver Cromwell had some harsh rules such as he didn't let children play football on Sundays or you would have been whipped in public and if you wanted to go to church but you went to the church in another village then you would be fined 50 pence which in those days was alot of money. Oliver Cromwell also stopped the bells and he didn't want the stained glass windows in the church so he took them out and put plain windows in. In my eyes he was a hipercrit because he didn't let you listen to music and play games but he liked listening to music and he did but he punished other people for doing it.by Becky London (who is gay)
maybe a few in battle but not the thousands myths would have you to believe.
There would have been some Irish people that worked with him, but the majority of his forces were not Irish.
I would compare oliver cromwell to winston churchill. They wee both world leaders who were very powerful!¬

towheads won the English Civil War as they had Oliver Cromwell on their side. Oliver Cromwell was a good cavalry commander so being on the parliaments side would give them a lot of power and strength

Obviously, Oliver Cromwell has been dead for several Centuries now. But he was born on 25th April 1599, so if he was still alive today (in 2012) he would be 413 years old!!
Oliver Cromwell was in control of England as 'Lord Protecter Cromwell', he got his name because the members of the parliment decided that he would be best because he listens to people, helps them out and trys to make a difference for everyone!!
