Born in 1630, Charles spent much of his young adulthood in exile. His father, Charles I, was ousted from the throne and executed in 1649. While a Puritanical regime ruled over England, Charles bided his time on the continent. In 1661, England's Parliament invited Charles to come home and become king - this "Restoration" of the monarchy ushered in a new phase in English history. Charles had some accomplishments during his 25 years on the throne.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are three lessons you can learn about history?
History is full of examples of how we can learn from our mistakes. We can apply them to today's business challenges and turn them into opportunities for growth.
The past has taught us that there is always a better way. There is always someone out there who thinks outside the box and takes risks that make them stand apart.
History shows us that often, it's the underdogs and not the winners who win. If you ever feel lost, overwhelmed or stuck, remember the times when the underdog prevailed.
Take a look back at the past to learn from it and make improvements for the future. Learn from the failures and successes of others.
These lessons can help you improve the success rate.
What lessons can be learned from history?
There are three lessons we've learned from history. The first is that you have to do it yourself if you want to change the world. It is important to make sure that people are prepared for change when you try to improve their lives. You can only change the future if it is better.
The first lesson is that there are two ways to change the world. One is fighting for it, the other is creating it. If you fight for it you lose sight on why you started to fight.
While you cannot control their reactions to your ideas or how they present them, you can influence how they are presented. If you try and convince someone to do something, it will be a failure. If you want to inspire others to act, you will succeed.
Great movements were born out of an idea that was realized and then taken action. Whether you are creating change or responding to it, these are the three best ways to make your mark. Be clear about what is important to you, be open about where you came from, and dare to go where no one else has.
The second lesson is the fact that we all have the power to make our lives better. We have two options: we can wait for life to happen to you or we can make it happen. This means we must decide what kind of life we want to lead. Are we willing to wait for someone to allow us to live? Or do we want to take charge of our destiny?
We are living in a golden age, I would argue. We have more opportunities than ever before which is creating excitement. People feel empowered to create their futures, and that's exciting.
This creates a problem. It's hard to know what you want.
Let's suppose you want to buy your first house. You could relax and hope that someone will give you a gift voucher to Home Depot. Or you could ask yourself, "What would I love to do?" Next, find a job that allows you to do this. Then, you can apply for financing.
Now let's imagine you wanted to travel around the world. Now, you might wonder "Where would I like to go?" Then, you'd start saving money, researching countries online, talking to friends, etc. And finally, you'd book a flight.
Let's assume you didn't really know what you wanted. In this case, you'd probably end-up doing one of the things. But by asking yourself questions like this, you increase your chances of getting what you want. It may seem odd, but it works.
The third lesson is to never lose sight of the possibility of improving the future. It is easy to see why. Your choices determine who you are and who you become.
The trick to success is to look back at history and learn from their mistakes and successes.
You're already behind if you don't think you have anything to offer the world. You must believe you are better than you think you are.
You don't need to know everything in order to start. Start small and then build on it. Reflect on the lessons that you've taken from your experiences throughout your life. What are you most proud of? What were your successes? How have you overcome obstacles?
Don't forget to remember that only you can limit your potential. No matter what anyone says, you can do anything you put your mind to.
Benjamin Franklin stated, "Nothing can work unless it works."
Can learning about history stop us from repeating past mistakes?
History repeats itself because we keep making the same mistakes again and again. We fail to learn from the mistakes we make. We don't change. We become complacent. We settle for mediocrity.
Because we continue to believe the same old stories, history repeats itself. We are conditioned to believe in immutable truths and immutable rules. That we cannot do anything to affect them.
This keeps us from being able to think critically. From challenging authority. From challenging assumptions. We don't grow if we don’t question. We stagnate if we don’t move forward. If we stagnate, then we make the exact same mistakes.
However, history does not repeat itself because we keep making the same mistakes. History repeats itself because we don't learn from our errors and keep making the same mistakes.
It is possible to break the cycle of history repetition. You can change the way you see the world, and your perspective by realizing that nothing is fixed in stone. There is no set in stone. Everything is constantly changing.
To break the cycle, embrace uncertainty. Accepting the possibility of things going wrong. Accepting the possibility that we might not succeed. To accept that failure is a possibility.
Accept that you may never achieve your goals. Acceptance is a part of learning, but it's important to continue improving.
To hold on to the past is to be certain. If you hold on to the belief that there are certain truths, you'll never be able to move forward.
You can't control your destiny. You must let go of control if you want to move forward.
Who said that history doesn't teach the ignorant?
Although we wish for a world where everyone learned from history, learning from our mistakes is more important than living in that ideal world.
The best way to learn how to do something correctly is to actually experience it.
The biggest mistake you can make is not ensuring that it goes right the first and only time.
As long as you keep making improvements, you'll eventually understand why you made those changes.
You might even realize that you could have done this better the first attempt.
But that doesn't mean you shouldn't try again. That's a sign that you have learned a lot.
While you may not be able avoid making mistakes, there are ways to minimize them. And that's the difference between success and failure.
Recognizing your mistakes starts at the beginning. Look at them objectively and ask: "What can I learn?"
You'll find that mistakes can be viewed as lessons if you are honest with yourself. They're learning experiences that can help you grow.
Thomas Edison experienced exactly that. He failed many other times before he inventing the lightbulb.
He didn't let his failures discourage him. Instead, he used each one as an opportunity to improve his design.
He developed the most well-known form of lighting we have today.
So, if you fail, don't get discouraged. Learn from your errors. Take advantage of them.
And then, you can try again.

How To
How did marketing history become propaganda?
When Max Weber, German sociologus and German sociologist came up with the term propaganda from the Greek phrase "praopagos", the word means "to speak well", the term was first used. The Latin verb "propere" (meaning "nearby"/ "at hand) and the noun ("agogos"), meaning "speech/discourse," gave rise to the word. It is "a systematic effort towards shaping attitudes and behaviour."
In his book "Propaganda," published in 1928, British journalist George Orwell wrote: "To understand the true nature of propaganda, we must realize that it is not the intention to make people believe anything; it is only the intention to change their beliefs...It is intended to make them accept one thing rather than another."
Edward Bernays (1891 –1955), who was Sigmund Fréud's nephew. The psychoanalyst and nephew of Sigmund Freud became famous after he invented "public relations" back in 1922. He said, "The conscious and intelligent manipulations the organized habits or opinions of the masses is an essential element in a democratic democracy." He started the public relations agency "Bernays & Company", where he remained until 1955.
Bernays' "engineering consent" technique was developed in the 1920s and 1950s. It involves influencing public opinion by using publicity campaigns and advertising. His techniques were later adopted by mass media companies such as Time Magazine, CBS News, NBC News, and Newsweek. Bernays worked closely with corporations and government agencies after World War II to influence public opinion. Johnson & Johnson (General Electric), Procter & Gamble; Coca-Cola; Ford Motor Company; U.S. Department of Defense; American Tobacco Company; DuPont, Rayonier and the United States Chamber of Commerce were just a few of his clients.
His most notable client was the tobacco industry. Philip Morris, who he assisted in developing a campaign against smoking was the most prominent client. The campaign resulted from the SurgeonGeneral recommending that smoking be banned indoors. The Cigarette Advertising Act was passed in 1965. It prohibited any advertisement for cigarettes in print media including newspapers and television.
He also gave advice on how to deal during the Great Depression with the growing labor movement. Bernays suggested that the president declare a "war on hunger" and use the federal government's power to ensure adequate food supplies. This strategy made the government look like a benevolent father figure and helped the president win re-election in 1936.
As the popularity of radio increased, Bernays started promoting the idea of "radio listening" to increase sales of radios. He introduced the concepts "branding" (and "advertising") in the 1930s. He believed that customers could be motivated by appealing to their emotional side, and making them feel unique. So, he promoted the slogan: "Have your got what it take?" He encouraged women to buy war bonds in 1933.
He established a political action group called "Young People for Freedom" back in 1944. The group's goal was to encourage Americans aged 18-30 to vote Republican. Bernays' efforts proved successful when Dwight Eisenhower won the presidential election in 1952.
Bernays persuaded CIA to set up a coup in Iran. Shah Reza Pahlevi took over Mohammad Mosaddegh's place. This was done to stop Mosaddegh's nationalization of Iranian oil fields. Bernays wrote articles praiseing the new regime after the coup as "moderate," progressive, and modernized.
Bernays was the recipient of many other awards over his entire career.
