The political movement Liberal (what we now call Classical Liberal to differentiate from the modern term) was created after the English Civil War (1642 to 1651) and the English Restoration (1660) of the throne to Charles the II.
One of the most prominent conservatives of the time was Thomas Hobbes who wrote a brilliant treasties called the Leviathan (1651). Hobbes supported the monarchy and the absolute sovereignty/power for the monarch.
The most prominent liberal of the time was John Locke...
I am sorry I am looking at the time and realize I don't have time to finish.

Yeah. In the US, what jh refers to as "economically liberal" is called "classically liberal."
