Why is Magna Carta important in hisory?
This document was revolutionary and sparked new ideas promoting democracy. It guaranteed certain basic political rights such as no taxation without representation. It also limited the King's power to ensure a stable government.

How did Magna Carta affect British government?
There's a lot of misunderstanding about this. Magna Carta (1215) was mainly designed to prop up the privileges of the feudal grandees and the Church. It didn't turn England into a democracy. However, it did also stress the importance of the rule of law - meaning that the king (the executive) had to function within the laws. It also guaranteed the principle of due process: that is, people charged with crimes had to have a proper trial in accordance with the rules. There is also the clause that says that the king (executive) mustn't deny, sell or delay justice to anyone. Much later, in the reigns of James I and Charles I in the first hald of the 1600s, when relations between these kings and Parliament were very bad, Magna Carta was mythologized and used as a powerful propaganda weapon against the monarchy.

Which of the following is a basic idea of magna carta?
The exact wording of the first article of the Magna Carta is: First, that we have granted to God, and by this present charter have confirmed for us and our heirs in perpetuity, that the English Church shall be free, and shall have its rights undiminished, and its liberties unimpaired. That we wish this so to be observed, appears from the fact that of our own free will, before the outbreak of the present dispute between us and our barons, we granted and confirmed by charter the freedom of the Church's elections - a right reckoned to be of the greatest necessity and importance to it - and caused this to be confirmed by Pope Innocent III. This freedom we shall observe ourselves, and desire to be observed in good faith by our heirs in perpetuity. We have also granted to all free men of our realm, for us and our heirs for ever, all the liberties written out below, to have and to keep for them and their heirs, of us and our heirs
What are the similarities between the magna carta and the US Constitution?
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
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.
What were three rights of the Magna Carta?
The demands of the Magna Carta were that King John would govern England and deal with its people according to the customs of feudal law. It was an attempt of the barons to keep the King from abusing his power. Important points of the Magna Carta were laws that were good and fair, everyone shall have access to courts and that costs and money should not be an issue if someone wanted to take a problem to the law courts, and that no freeman will be punished and sent to prison without first going through the courts. Freeman was later changed to include everyone.
What is the MagnaCarta?
The Magna Carta is an English charter (or a list of laws and rights) that was originally written in 1215, and then was revised in 1297. The document was written by barons of King John of England who believed that his rule was in need of limitations because their rights were starting to be infringed upon. Though much of the document has been changed and repealed, the Magna Carta has served has a symbol for many who have sought to keep their leaders from exerting too much power. For example, the United States Constitution and Bill of Rights were heavily influenced by the provisions of the Magna Carta.

The Bill of Rights and the magna carta?
some similarities are that they both possess clauses about due process of law, trial by jury, speedy and unbiased trial, and protection against bail, fines, and cruel punishment. Also both were instigated due to a lack of government efficiency. For the Magna Carta, King John was taxing his barons ridiculous amounts of money to fund his getting back of his french territories that he has lost, which he never successfully re-gained. The barons proposed to King John the magna carta, which he reluctantly signed only so that he could keep their allegiance with him. He actually found the Magna to be "mere foolishness!" In the case of the constitution, the government at the time was weak and the articles of confederation were very weak. THere was no central government, and when a rebellion broke out, a Constitutional Convention was called out in which the Constitution was born from.

Why were English lords angry with King John?
The barons were very angry with King John. He could'nt keep land, support the church or keep taxes fairly.
What were the results of the magna carta?
the answer is they made him sign the magna carta cuz they wanted to take over the land and if he didnt sign it then they was gonna kill him and he didnt wanna die. but he really did wanna keep his land and be the leader of his land that belonged to him. so mainly he just signed a deed to make someone else be the leader
How did English law affect our law today?
Big question with a very long answer. To keep it short, there are two types of modern legal systems - Civil Law, instituted by Napoleon Bonaparte, where the judge asks all the questions and makes the decision - this is used in most of Europe and Louisiana. The second type, common law, is used throughout the US and most of the British Commonwealth. This relies on Cases, previous decisions. A close analogy would be to say that it is like the accumulation of corporate knowledge, the more we learn and develop, the smarter we get. Hope this helps.
