King John was forced to sign the Magna Carta by a group of English barons and knights. These barons and knights rebelled against King John's unjust taxes and his way of ruling.

They captured London and forced King John to sign the Magna Carta at Runnymede. King John later declared the Magna Carta null and void. He never had any intention of abiding by the document and never ruled under its authority.
