George Monck (1608 - 1670) was an English soldier and politician. He was responsible for the restoration of King Charles II of England.
Biography
Charles II went into exile to the Dutch Republic after his defeat against Oliver Cromwell, who was now named Lord Protector of the Commonwealth. Cromwell ruled for seven years, until he died.
Soon after that, George Monck managed to take control of London and he had Charles II proclaimed king of England. He also gave Charles advice on how to rule England, telling him to grant amnesty to the enemies of his father, in order to get them to accept him as their rightful ruler.
During Charles' coronation at Westminster Abbey, the king noticed Monck speaking to a man holding an Apple of Eden.
