Answer 2

Answer:

B. It established that no one, not even a king, is above the law

Explanation:

The Magna Carta (1215) was a charter of rights written by a group of Barons of England that were tired of King John’s tyrannic rule. The charter established a more powerful parliament, granted some liberties of free men, such as the right to a trial by jury before punishment, and reduced the power of King John, whose rule was perceived as abusive.

Its significance lies in the fact that it set limits on the power of the British monarchy by making the King subject to the law, meaning that from that point on, the British crown had to be accountable for its actions under the law, just like everyone else.
