End up founding a 17th century republic, becoming the most powerful commoner in British history, one of the most consequential human beings in history generally, genocide the Scots and kill 1/4 Irish.
What do Ye sordid prostitutes make of Oliver?
Not counting Messiahs, what /his/torical figures started from such inauspicious beginnings and rose so high?

I prefer Fairfax in that he has a lot less controversial baggage surrounding him whilst still being a True Anglo Warrior.

Cromwell's Interregnum served as an ideological inspiration for Revolutions both American and French - that alone is a major contribution to history that is often neglected.

Genghis Khan, half the Chinese dynasties start with an upjumped commoner raising an army and overthrowing the ruling Dynasty. Joseph Stalin was a Georgian peasant who eventually commanded the greatest army the world had yet seen. Mao is kinda similar.

Imagine an alternative history scenario, where Cromwell's son actually stays in power, Charles II is captured and executed, and Britain becomes a protestant theocratic republic.

Had it remained so, and the French revolution happened, Britain+France would have bankrolled Europe as far as Moscow, and there would be no independent Americas.
