The Magna Carta established the basis for representative democracy as it was the first attempt after the fall of the classical Graeco-Roman era of a form of parliament, where nobles would meet to deliberate the course of society,and advise the kings on policy issues. It was a paradigm shift from the absolute politics and power structures of dark Europe, forming to inspire future government discussions in England and USA.

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.
