The Magna Carta, signed in 1215, established the principle that everyone, including the king, is subject to the law. It sought to limit the powers of the monarchy and protect the rights of nobles, leading to the development of constitutional law. Key provisions included guarantees of due process and protection from unlawful imprisonment, laying the groundwork for modern democracy and individual rights. Its enduring legacy continues to influence legal systems around the world.
