Explanation: The Magna Carta supported the rise of representative government in England because it was the beginning of England's constitutional laws and through it the protection of ecclesiastical rights was sought, that is, from the church to be independent of any matter related to the Government, as well as the right to freedom of citizens, the right of widows to choose if they wanted to remarry among others. Although this document as such was repealed by the Pope, it served extensively to advocate and fight for the right to Freedom.
