Merry King Charles Stuart II: The Black King of England – Oguejiofo Annu
The word Stuart comes from the old nordish root Svart which means black. Stuart is the same word as Swarthy, which means black in old English. [Others claim its root origin is Steward]. However that might be, this is not the crux of the story here. Our story is about the suppressed history of the Black and Brown Europeans including several kings that had once called Europe their original home.
There was once a Stuart line of Kings in England. The name of the founding ancestor was Stuart.
In this post, we feature the original painting of one of the Stuart Kings of England and Scotland, King Charles II, also lovingly known as the “black boy” of England by his subjects.
He is commemorated in the celebrated name of the Black Boy Inn, found all over the British Isle.
Like his ancestors before him, King Charles II was a black man. Many of his surviving paintings falsely depict him as a so-called white man in clear contradiction to the famous description of the jolly King.
However, in the picture posted immediately below, one can see one of the contemporary paintings of King Charles Stuart II, Merry Black Boy of England. This picture invites all to decide why King Charles Stuart II, would have been called the black boy.
King Charles Stuart II 1630 – 1685
The eldest surviving son of Charles I and Henrietta Maria of France, daughter of Henry IV of France, the future Charles II was born on 29th May, 1630, at St. James Palace, London, the second child of the marriage, he replaced an elder brother, Charles James, who had died shortly after birth.
It was said that when Charles was born in 1630 he was nicknamed the Black Boy by his mother, Queen Henrietta Maria, because of his dark and swarthy appearance
In 1646, following political crisis, his father Charles I was overthrown by Oliver Cromwell and beheaded. Charles II had to flee for his life through Scotland and on to France after making a weak and symbolic attempt at regaining the Stuart title. Fate and reality had soon dawned on him. He settled into a life of penury in France.
Upon the death of Oliver Cromwell, Charles was recalled back to England by Cromwell’s legatee and son who had no interest in ruling England. Charles was restored back to the throne and his coronation took place at the traditional venue of Westminster Abbey on 23rd April, 1661.
The Merry Monarch as he was later to become known, is famous for his many mistresses. Although he had numerous children by his mistresses, the Queen, to her great sadness, remained barren.
Charles popularity with the people was solid. Despite the ravages of last great outbreak of the Bubonic Plague struck London in 1665, which claimed thousands of lives; and the great fire of London 1666 which completely destroyed the city, he was highly favoured by the people.
He died without an official heir on 6 February, 1685 after a brief illness and was succeeded by his brother, King James II. He was the most beloved of all the Kings in the line of the Stuarts.
Black King of England
According to the annals of the english monarch:
Charles’ appearance was anything but English, with his sensuous curling mouth, dark complexion, black hair and dark brown eyes, he much resembled his Italian maternal grandmother, Marie de Medici’s side of the family. During his escape after the Battle of Worcester, he was referred to as ‘a tall, black man’ in parliamentary wanted posters.
One of the nick-names he acquired was the black boy His height, at six feet two inches, probably inherited from his Danish paternal grandmother, Anne of Denmark, also set him apart from his contemporaries in a time when the average Englishman was far smaller than today.
English Pubs
All English pubs named the Black boy are named after Charles II due to the swarthy and dark colour of his complexion.
Modern European painters try to hide the racial identity of this jolly King by depicting such fantasy as is posted below:

Huh? What is this supposed to mean? I ask for source citations and you advertise me your Rasta site? How pathetic!
Should you not understand the basics of a subject first before proceeding any further? You sound green and fresh in this area so better read up more before you come across like a cantankerous fool…
everyone in history wasnt white either!!!!!!!!!
Tantrums are for babies. We are talking about King Charles II and not “EVERYBODY” but it seems as though the truth hurts. Especially when lies (whites are superior) are all that were heard and believed.
Superior, do tell where you find your facts from. I can give you an example how your wrong. 2 black people can make a white person, call an albino. 2 white people can’t make a black person, without going to a lab. Let that sit in.

Having majored in European History in college I am always interested in these types of so called mysteries. And what I have discovered from my own findings is that the truth is actually often staring you in the face. There are historical facts about various Africans that played major roles in the development of “European History” For instance The Princess Louise Marie Therese or (“Mauresse de Moret”) was the daughter of Queen of France, Maria Theresa of Spain and King Louis XIV. However by Frances own history shows that King Louis XlV was black his body was described as some of” these bodies were well preserved, especially the one of Louis XIII; but Louis XIV skin was black like ink.”
The bodies of King Charles Stuart ll was a black man. On my last trip to London I visited National Portrait Gallery in which they have a portrait of him and he is CLEARLY a black man. Someone asked for a documented citation well when the English parliament describes his as “as a tall Black man” that is a direct citation. It is a historical FACT that Queen Ann of Demark was black if you take the time to trace his family line it goes back to Maria de Medici. The term “Blue Blood” traces back to Africa.
I am interested in finding this info you are speaking about I am seeking true history
This is great
