Hello,

1)The Restoration of Charles II to the English throne occurred in 1660 and with it, a new sub-genre of theatre began: Restoration Comedy.

2)Restoration comedies were often bawdy and rise in popularity of such works is likely due to the merry attitude of Charles II as well as the general fatigue England felt after its many civil wars.

3)The Rover is a classic Restoration comedy, dealing with the romantic intrigues of a group of English gentlemen on holiday in Naples over carnival weekend and hence because of its light hearted plot it serves as a restoration comedy.

Incase you want to explain this in detail you can also insert the summary of the plot in the above answer.

Hope this helps.
