Solution

The correct option is A Oliver Cromwell
After the execution of Charles I, Oliver Cromwell served in the Rump Parliament and set to reform the legal system in part through the establishment of the Blue Laws. He commanded campaigns in Ireland and Scotland in the early 1650s, and served as “lord protector” of England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland from 1653 until his death. Hence, Option A is correct.
