Englishman who served as a subordinate and Lord Protector in the British
government before his death in 1658. Known as a very religious man, Oliver
Cromwell attributed his victories to God-given victories and led wars in the
faith of conquering. As Lord Protector, Lord Cromwell’s roles were to lead
armies into battles as an army general, impose religious beliefs on nations he
conquered, and head the state.Lord Cromwell's significant role as Lord
Protector was to lead armies in various battles that the government took an
interest in. Lord Cromwell led battles such as the battle against King Charles
I, Ireland's territory dominance, and the war against Scotland (Mendlesohn). His primary goal was
to expand his influence in his territories. In addition, he was a significant
signatory before wars occurred, verifying and approving battles against nations
he wanted to take over (Augustine). Therefore, one of Lord Cromwell’s roles as
Lord Protector involved leading the army into battles.
