Grand Remonstrance
1641
The Long Parliament passed by a narrow margin a long list of grievances against Charles I and a demand for the removal of his ministers. The Grand Remonstrance was England's declaration that the relationship between king and parliament had fundamentally changed. Royalist and parliamentarian parties now had distinct platforms, and the country was dividing into two armed camps.
