We follow the dramatic events that led to the English king being charged with high treason by his own subjects after a bloody civil war. Our reaction covers the formation of the High Court of Justice, Charles’s powerful courtroom defiance, and the revolutionary claim that the king was not above the law. We explore the political stakes, the moral arguments, and the global shockwaves caused by the decision to execute a sitting monarch. This episode captures the death of the divine right of kings and the rise of a new vision of government ruled by law, not bloodline. If you’re fascinated by revolutionary justice, political upheaval, and the roots of modern constitutionalism, this is a must-watch.
