Although the confrontation between Charles I and Parliament was to continue for a further year after the Battle of Naseby, this battle effectively ended any chance Charles had of victory. His main army was crushed and his weapons and stores were seized. Most unfortunate for The Royalists (also known as Cavaliers), Charles' private papers fell into the hands of his enemies. These proved that the King was interested in hiring foreign mercenaries and bringing in money from abroad. Seizing their opportunity, Parliament published the papers. The Royalist cause already on an unsteady footing, Charles' papers proved to be a political disaster for The Royalists.
