Under the reign of, the , which always had been difficult to hold together, even under greater kings, came into trouble. Ironically, it weren't the English who rebelled but the Castillians, despite the king having more Castillian than English ancestors. The king tried to suppress them, but in 1630, the army of the Cortes defeated the English army that had landed at. After the sea 1631, the Castillians occupied the English colonies in the Caribbean. England fell into a financial crisis. This was the last straw to many: In 1633, uprisings against king Henry VI started. The (ECW) had begun.

1634, king Henry was captured and banned to (i.e. he was put onto a ship which captain was told he has a prisoner to be released in Atlantis. Like the nobles used to joke, this was the worst imaginable punishment for the king, who banned that many religious dissenters there.) However, since the king had no heir, the nobles weren't in unison about what to do. So they started to fight among each other; the common people dub the war, after the leaders of the most important groups, the Staffords and the, "".
