Do you agree that the British were instrumental in introducing the "rule of law"? Justify your answer
irakobra [83]

Answer:

I agree.

Explanation:

The rule of law is the concept that ensures that an individual has all their rights guaranteed by the State, which stipulates laws and guidelines in favor of citizens. However, the rule of law also plays an important role in regulating the country's governance. This is because the rule of law allows the power and decisions made by the governors of a region to be limited by the laws in force in that region.

In this case, the English had a strong influence on the construction of the rule of law, through the magma letter that limited the king's power and forced him to obey a set of rules and laws.
