What came out of it was a synthesis of various aspects of the two.
This tends to happen a lot in life.

To lose one castle is a misfortune. To lose four seems like carelessness.

Cromwell never banned alcohol.
In fact, some Royalist propaganda made fun of him for being a brewer (which he wasn't, but his mother was married to one at one point.)

For a couple of years when I was about 9 we used to go with our next door neighbours to the Sealed Knot Civil War re-enactements... I was a drummer boy with a Pike regiment called meldrums.... we was Parliament (Roundheads).... was a right laugh actually and I was a full on scrumpy drinker by the time I had finished...
