Answer 1

During the Medieval era, the seeds of modern British government were sewn by the establishment of parliament. This began in 1215, when a Magna Carta was obtained from King John by his tenants-in-chief, saying that the King was exluded from the collection of taxes (except feudal taxes). This council led to the development of parliament.
