Why did King John agree to sign the Magna Carta?
In the 13th century monarchs had almost absolute power over their subjects. The kings were assumed to have a divine right to rule and the law was whatever he declared it to be. The only source of power higher was God and his representative the Pope. Religion, politics and power were, to all intents and purposes, a single entity. The monarchs and the Catholic Church needed the support of each other to keep their positions in society.On June 15, 1215 about 40 barons confronted King John with a list of grievances, demanding redress. This is the list that became the Magna Carta (Great Charter). Several clauses in the list are incorporated into the constitutions of several countries including the US constitution.Notable clauses being what is now the Habeas Corpus act, (the right to be brought before a court or judge), not to sell, deny or delay right or justice, no official to take anyone’s chattels or corn unless payment is made and set a standard measure for corn, wine and ale.King John was aware he was in a poor position, several countries were aware of the internal problems he faced and stood in the wings ready to pounce. John knew if he did not accede to the demands civil war was likely and his crown would be lost. On the advice of William Marshal and Hubert de Burgh to offer concessions he accepted the grievances without demur and placed his solemn seal on the document. The idea that he signed it is false. Almost immediately he went back on his word and by autumn England was plunged into civil strife John died in October 1216 and his nine year old son, became Henry III.On November 12 a revised version of the document was read out as a royal declaration confirming the new king would govern according to the laws of England.
