Question

question 5 (1 point)
who was made lord protector of the commonwealth in 1653?
a king charles i
b oliver cromwell
c gen. george monck
d king charles ii

Explanation:

To solve this, we recall historical events: In 1653, after the English Civil War, Oliver Cromwell was made Lord Protector of the Commonwealth. King Charles I was executed earlier, Gen. George Monck played a role later in restoring the monarchy, and King Charles II was restored later (not in 1653 as Lord Protector).

Answer:

b. Oliver Cromwell
