King John ruled over England from 1199 to 1216. He ascended to the throne upon the death of his brother, Richard the Lionheart. The signing of the Magna Carta in 1215 was the result of a rebellion against his rule.
During King John's rule, some people were mistreated by the law through heavy taxation, arbitrary fines, and unfair trials. King John's abuse of power led to widespread oppression and discontent among his subjects, ultimately resulting in the implementation of the Magna Carta in 1215 to protect their rights and limit the power of the king.
King John signed the Magna Carta on June 15, 1215, at Runnymede, a meadow by the River Thames near Windsor, England. This historic document was a response to the barons' dissatisfaction with the king's rule and established the principle that everyone, including the monarch, was subject to the law. The Magna Carta is often considered a foundational text for modern democracy and the rule of law.
