Roundheads

Japanese: 円頂党 - えんちょうとう
Roundheads
A derogatory term given to the Parliamentarians during the Puritan Revolution in England. It comes from the fact that the upper classes at the time had long hair, while apprentices and craftsmen had their hair cut short. From this name, we can see that the Parliamentarians were made up of people of a lower class than the Royalists. The Royalists were also known as the Knights.

Japanese:
英国のピューリタン革命における議会派につけられた蔑称。当時の上流階級の人たちは髪を長くしていたのに,徒弟・職人たちは短く刈っていたことに由来する。この呼び名から議会派には国王派よりも比較的に下層の人たちが参加していたことが知られる。なお国王派の別称は騎士党。
