The Power of kings was severely limited as kings now had to listen to a group of other people (what would develop into the first parliament of England), and the king was no longer above the law.

However, in reality, little of the changes were actually implemented on right away. It would take years for kings to truly abide to the document but the Magna Carta was still the first step to limiting the king's powers.
