How did the magna carta create the foundations of democratic rule in england and the us

Answer 1

He served to lay the foundation for the evolution of parliamentary government and subsequent declarations of rights in Great Britain and the United States. In attempting to establish checks on the king's powers, this document asserted the right of "due process" of law. By the end of the 13th century, it provided the basis for the idea of a "higher law," one that could not be altered either by executive mandate or legislative acts.

Answer 2

Answer:The Magna Carta was an attempt by the nobility to limit the power of the king. The Magna Carta was written as a way for the people to protect their rights and liberties. They felt that King John's abusive powers needed to be controlled and limited. The Magna Carta protected people from heavy taxes and unjust imprisonment. This idea of protecting the rights of people lay the foundation for democratic rule in England and America.
