Royalists vs. Parliamentarians
During the English Civil War (often referred to as the Civil War, much like Americans refer to their own civil war), Parliamentarians and Puritans banded together against King Charles I. The result was Charles being beheaded, and Oliver Cromwell running a Commonwealth government until the Restoration of 1660, when Charles I's son Charles II was restored to the English throne.
