Explanation
Answer - A - The immediate result of the English Civil War was that Oliver Cromwell practically ruled through dictatorship.

Key Takeaway: When the commanders of the New Model Army defeated the royalists in the English Civil War, King Charles was swiftly executed. As a former commander of the New Model Army, Cromwell ruled over the consequent short-lived Commonwealth of England. During this time, he served as “Lord Protector” of Ireland, England, and Scotland until his death in 1658.
