How did Charles 1 abuse his power with the people?

Charles I abused his power by ruling without Parliament for an extended period, particularly from 1629 to 1640, during which he imposed taxes and levies without legislative approval. He also enforced strict religious policies, leading to widespread discontent among Puritans and other dissenters. His use of the Star Chamber to suppress opposition and enforce royal authority further alienated his subjects, ultimately contributing to the English Civil War.
