The Magna Carta, signed in 1215, established the principle that everyone, including the king, was subject to the law. It emphasized the importance of due process, protecting individual rights, and limiting the powers of the monarchy. This foundational document laid the groundwork for constitutional governance and the idea that government should be accountable to its citizens. Ultimately, it heralded the shift towards more democratic forms of governance in the future.
