What was the most powerful governing body in the Roman Republic?
The people that have that kind of power was the senate which at the time had basic control over everything since they did all the voting. except when ceasr was in power he gave himself absolute power over everyone and did everything that he wanted. But when he had been killed his adopted son went into to the leadership roll who was Augustus but he didn't want to make the same mistake his father made so he did what the senate wanted him to do which made them give him complete power but he did not ask for this he just waited for them to give it to him. So yes the senate has all of the power in Rome if you go by this.

What is the Magna Carta and all you need to know about it?
I asked the question and I'm answering the question. Why? Because I want to help all of you who are stuck on the Magna Carta and what it is.WHAT IS THE MAGNA CARTA?The Magna Carta was also called the Magna Carta Libertatum or the Great Charter. The Magna Carta was written in Latin and the words "Magna Carta Libertatum" means the Great Charter of Freedom". As you can guess, that is why some people also call it the Great Charter.HOW WAS KING JOHN OF ENGLAND INVOLVED WITH THE MAGNA CARTA?After a lot of pressure(John was not an extremely nice man)John's Barons and Bishops created a document which they called Magna Carta(or Magna Carta Libertatum). They wanted John to sign it because it would be like signing a contract-that they would get their rights after John died. John didn't exactly agree with it but what could he do?So in June 1215, he sealed the document.For those of younger people reading this, it was kind of like a will....AND WHAT HAPPENED TO IT AFTER THAT?Well, before, as I told you, John was not the most decent man you could find so he abandoned the Magna Carta(I can hear some of you gasp back there!) and the Barons got extremely angry. In fact, a war broke out which led to John's death.He was killed on 19 October 1216.I LOOKED THIS UP ON WIKI AND IT SAID THERE WHERE SOME COPIES!Yeah...I didn't finish. Shortly after John's death, Henry III took over. He didn't like the ways of his father, thus reissued the Magna Carta in 1225. After that...who knows?GRRR!! YOU STILL HAVEN'T ANSWERED MY QUESTION!Which is...?WHAT ABOUT THE COPIES? WHERE THERE ANY COPIES?!Umm...well...yeah. I think so.HOW MANY!!?Hey, Mister "Bold-Writing-with-the-Caps-Lock-on"! I'm not exactly sure(actually I think there might be 3 around today but I'm not to sure)....SO WHAT DID THE GREAT CHARTER SAY?Hey! I don't know everything! But I know the answer to this.The Magna Carta said:John, by the Grace of God King of England, Duke of Normandy and Aquitine and...WHAT?I've just thought up an idea! Type this into your address bar:www.bl.UK./treasures/magnacarta/index.HTML#WELL...THANKS..Hope this helped!
What the magnacarter?
It's the Magna Carta you idiot. Latin for Great Charter. The Magna Carter was the first document that documented the rights of citizens of a country. That country was England and the document was signed by King John is 1215. It is the basis for every document of its kind that followed, including the US Constitution.
How did it help the nobles by King John signing the magna carta?
King John signing Magna Carta, despite it being rescinded almost straight away by the Pope, Innocent III, paved the way for a parliament in England. It took some time and more wars and conflict between king and baron, but Magna Carta started it. Kings had coronation charters setting out what they were going to do, a sort of manifesto when the succession was less than certain (William II and Henry I and to an extent John with his nephew Arthur) and Magna Carta took those promises to improve on what the previous monarch did and made it more formal, taking the onus away from the king and handing it to the barons to enforce. Magna Carta was the first time that a king's obligations were written down by anyone other than the king himself, limiting the power of the king and placing a board of twenty-five barons to watch over him with the power to remove castles from his control. This clause, 61, was never going to work - the country, regardless that it was the barons who chose to include this, were not ready for a country without a king. It was the person of the king they objected to, not the position of King itself. That was why, despite the limitations placed on John in Magna Carta, the rebels had invited Prince Louis of France to become king in John's stead. They NEEDED a king on the throne. They could not truly conceive of a government of any other kind. Magna Carta gave certain safeguards to the barons, limited payments to the crown, for instance the payment to inherit one's father's lands, or to be recognised as the legitimate heir where there was doubt. Widows and orphans were granted extra protection against exploitation by the crown. It outlined what the barons could expect from the king against a backdrop of King John moving the goal posts to suit his own personal whims. It also reversed some of John's more cruel actions, the keeping of hostages from Scotland and Gwynedd, which in itself was an indication that the goings on in the other kingdoms and principalities of the island were linked inextricably to England. When Magna Carta was reissued on the accession to the throne of Henry III, John's nine year old son, it was missing the most contentious clauses, such as Clause 61. It went against the Pope's decree that it was 'shameful and base but also illegal', and also was a PR masterstroke, negating the rebel baron's reasons for supporting Louis of France as the new king was agreeing to abide by what they wanted. It secured the position of the underage Henry and ended the rebellion.
How did the Magna Carta help the US Constitution?
the founding fathers based the DOI (declaration of Independence) after the magna carta-the magna carta was a list of formal complaints against the king. The DOI is, too. The DOI came before the constitution, so hope that helps!(added on) I didn't want to erase the former answer. Here is it in more detail:Actually, the Magna Carta was written first by the noblemen in Britain to King John of Britain because of the King's abuse of his power. He was not intelligent, nor a great war strategist, nor a brave warrior, nor a honest and kind King. He would often have people executed for speaking out against him. And so, the Magna Carta was drafted in order to put a restraint on the tyrant King. So in June 15th of 1215, the noblemen trapped the King at Runnymeade and forced him to sign it (it was rumoured that the King was illiterate).Anyway, this situation is increasingly similar to the way the colonies felt about King George III at the time around the American Revolution. How the King would abuse their "certain unalienable rights" such as life, liberty, and (property) the pursuit of happiness (borrowed from enlightenment thinker John Locke). It was also rumoured that the King was mentally insane. And through the war, the King was forced to sign the Treaty of Paris 1783 and renounce Britain's claim on the colonies.In a more concise way:Both the situations of the Historical Documents are very similar as well as the content. They both include how the basic rights would be upheld, how everyone was entitled to a jury trial, how the King (any single ruler) would not have the power to throw the people into prison or execute them without a trial, and much more. Even though the Magna Carta refers mainly to the noblemen and the Constitution applies to the common citizens.--LiraFrost
