"Unlike many other rulers, Charles never indulged in petty tyranny or intemperate rages simply because he was king and everybody else wasn’t. He saved his anger for important battles (like those with Parliament), and instead led his day-to-day life with mild and gentlemanly manners."
Susan Holloway Scott at Two Nerdy History Girls (source)
Oh Charles, you’re such a classy chap. And this time I’m not even being slightly sarcastic.

FUCK YEAH CHARLES IICharles II was King of England, Scotland and Ireland from 1660 to 1685. Also known as the Merry Monarch, he is infamous for his numerous mistresses and rowdy court- but there's a lot more to Charlie than debauchery and scandal. This blog is here to showcase every aspect of his life, with a generous dollop of humour thrown in.
