Answer:
The correct answer is ‘It gave Englishmen political rights’.
Option: D
<u>Explanation:
</u>
The Great Charter a.k.a Magna Carta is considered as one of the most significant documents in the history of the entire world. <em>It gave the people of England their political rights and for the first time in forever, the king was subjected to law.</em>
People enjoyed this policy as it was the first time that even the king was in the same state as the public and had to follow the policies that an ordinary man did. <em>It was put into force by King John of England as a solution for the political crisis he faced during his time of rule to gain his public’s hearts.</em>

The "American standard of living" completely transformed during the mind-twentieth century,
specifically the 1950s. It was a decade of reverence for the esteemed economic system of capitalism
after a decade of horrendous war. Coming out of the Second World War, the 1950s symbolized a
new period of ultimate economic expansion, relatively stable costs and prices, and a lowering
unemployment rate- all leading up to a "golden age of capitalism" and an increased "American
standard of living". (Foner 991) This increased standard of living only came through however, due to
increasing wages for the common man and average citizen. Between 1946 and 1960, the nation's
gross product was merely doubled and because of that, this new generation of Americans was finally
better off than their parents and previous ancestors. As Foner points out, "about 60 percent of
Americans enjoyed what the government defined as a middle-class standard of living." (991) In all
facets of life, nutrition, shelter, income, education, and even leisure, the majority of Americans were
better off. Most of these middle-class Americans now had money to spare, or used that money to
enjoy the finer innovations that came along with this new standard, including television, airconditioning,
and even air travel. In the end, not only did the poverty rate in America decrease during
this decade, but also the basic standard of living for the average American was drastically advanced
