During the English Civil War, Rupert fought in the Royalist army as a commander of cavalry. At first he met with great success but later, when he failed to hold the city of Bristol for Charles I, he was banished and returned to Europe. When Charles II was restored to the throne in 1660, Rupert became squadron commander in the Royal Navy, active in government and a leading member of the London social scene.
