How to use "Royalist" in context?
In the late 18th century, the term "royalist" was used to describe anyone who supported the House of Stuart monarchy in England. The Stuarts were a ruling family that had reigned for over 250 years. They were originally from Scotland, but had moved to England in the 16th century. Over the years, the monarchy had become very unpopular, and there had been numerous uprisings against it. Some people in the Parliament wanted to abolish the monarchy altogether, while others wanted to create a more democratic system. The Stuarts were a very unpopular ruling family, and many people in England wanted to see them overthrown.
