Charles II (1630–85), King of Great Britain and Ireland (in exile) from 1649; restored in 1660. He promised religious toleration in the Declaration of
Breda, and after the Restoration he tried to give effect to it in the
Declarations of Indulgence of 1662 and 1672. The sentiment of the country was, however, exclusively Anglican and led to the passing of the
Act of Uniformity (1662), the
Conventicles Act (1664), the
Five Mile Act (1665), and the
Test Act (1673). The King eventually supported the establishment, but on his deathbed he made a formal profession of the RC faith.
