Which basic principle that we use today was established by the Magna Carta?

History

People accused of a crime have the right to be judged by a jury of peers before receiving punishment.

Here is the clause from the Magna Carta which states that principle:

Clause 39: <em>No free man shall be seized or imprisoned, or stripped of his rights or possessions, or outlawed or exiled, or deprived of his standing in any other way, nor will we proceed with force against him, or send others to do so, except by the lawful judgement of his equals or by the law of the land.</em>

That assertion by The Magna Carta of 1215, that a person should not suffer punishment without the lawful judgment of his peers, influenced the Bill of Rights of the US Constitution. The opening lines of the 6th Amendment of the Constitution of the United States affirm that "in all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed."

1.) Which issue is NOT a major challenge that both Australia and New Zealand face today?
Elodia [21]

1.) D.) High birth rates

As most of the countries in the world, Australia and New Zealand have some issues that make them problems, but the high birth rates is not one of those issues. These two nations do not have high birth rates, in fact they have low birth rates. The governments of these nations try to convince the people to have more children as they are starting to face an aging population which is very damaging for the economy. The younger population though is not that interested in having lot of children, and some don't want to have children at all.

2.) B.)They crowd out native animal territories

The invasive species are species that have been introduced into a new environment, be it naturally or because of the humans. These species more often than not manage to outcrowd the native species territories. This happens because the invasive species are often able to reproduce quicker. They tend to outcompete the native species, and also the native species do not have a defense mechanism against them. This results in explosion of the populations of invasive species, while the native species have significant decrease or go extinct.

Describe how the Catholic Church was corrupt during the Middle Ages and into the Renaissance. ( examples).
Natali5045456 [20]

The Catholic Church became corrupted, due to its overgrown power. Because of the Pope's overspendings, the Pope started the Sales of Indulgences. The Sales of Indulgences was a scheme to earn more money. It made people spend money so that they/family members go into heaven. This upsetted a reformer, Martin Luther. That started the Reformation. So in summery, the Catholic Church gained to much power ( more than the nobility) and it wanted more money. BTW, this only a little bit of it.
