The article begins with what a the Protectorate is and the time frame for which it was in effect. It also give a brief history of what the English, Scottish and Irish government was like before the Protectorate. The title is officially known as the Lord Protector. The article then goes to tell us what the role of the Lord Protector is and basically their responsibilities. The first Lord Protector was Oliver Cromwell.

I would say that I might recommend this article for maybe a starter spot on learning about the the Lord Protector of England. Granted there is not much information to begin with on this subject but this still seems a little vague on certain points. Not too mention that the article stated that it needed more citations for verification. This says to me that the sources listed maybe a little shaky.
