1265 - The rebel leader, Simon de Montfort, Earl of Leicester, called an unofficial parliament at Oxford. 1295 - King Edward I called the first official and lawful parliament, later nicknamed the 'Model Parliament'. The members were chosen on the same basis as for Simon de Montfort's rebel parliament.
The English Parliament began to take shape in the 13th century, with the first formal gathering known as the "Model Parliament" convened by King Edward I in 1295. This assembly included not just nobles and clergy, but also commoners, representing a broader segment of society. The institution evolved over the following centuries, becoming a key part of England's political system. Its development marked the transition from feudal rule to a more representative form of governance.
The English Parliament was able to win new rights because monarchs needed its approval to levy new taxes. The first Parliament was called by Edward I in 1295 because he needed money for a war in France. Among the rights later won by Parliament was the right to pass laws on matters other than taxation.
