The exam paper examines the origins of the English Civil War (1625–1642), focusing on political and religious tensions. Section A evaluates Laudianism through sources on William Laud's justification of religious reforms and Parliamentary impeachment charges, highlighting debates over ecclesiastical authority and alleged Catholic influences. Section B explores the causes of deteriorating Crown-Parliament relations (1625–1629), attributing blame to Charles I, and assesses the role of the Irish Rebellion (October 1641) in triggering the English Civil War. The questions emphasize governance, religious conflict, and the breakdown of political order during this transformative period.
