	- "Catherine of Braganza, for political reasons, he had no children with her as she was barren": first of all, the term "barren" is rather demeaning; secondly, Catherine of Braganza was pregnant several times, but miscarried.		- "Catherine of Braganza, for political reasons, he had no children with her as she was barren": first of all, the term "barren" is rather demeaning; secondly, Catherine of Braganza was pregnant several times, but miscarried.

 "Charles got the nickname ‘Merry Monarch’ by Clarendon’ son, Laurence, First Lord of the Treasury": this is plagiarised from the website britishheritage.com and is confusing the Earls of Rochester (an indication that the author does not known their Restoration history properly and the site is a rather poor source). The Second Earl, John Wilmot, coined the phrase and "quipped, 'He never said a foolish thing and never did a wise one'" (https://britishheritage.com/history/charles-ii-restoration). Clarendon's son, Laurence Hyde, became Earl of Rochester later and he is not known as quipper.
