many say it was because he was greedy but actually it was because he needed to get more equipment and army men to be in battles as he had lost most of the army in the wars against the french.
King John of England imposed several taxes during his reign, most notably the "scutage," a fee paid by knights in lieu of military service. He also increased taxes on land and introduced various fines and levies to bolster royal revenues. His heavy taxation and financial exploitation of the nobility contributed to widespread discontent, ultimately leading to the signing of the Magna Carta in 1215. This document not only limited his powers but also laid the groundwork for more equitable taxation practices in the future.
