Answer
Disputes with Parliament over taxes.James I believed in the Divine Right of Kings, meaning he felt his authority came directly from God and was therefore absolute. Parliament, however, saw its role as crucial in governing and controlling finances. This difference in opinion led to frequent clashes, especially concerning taxation.
