Answer:

In 1215, King John of England was forced to sign the Magna Carta stating that the king was not above the law of the land and protecting the rights of the people. Today, the Magna Carta is considered one of the most important documents in the history of democracy. Magna Carta was sealed by King John on 15 June 1215. The document was drawn up after his barons rebelled and forced him to agree to limitations on his power because he had demanded heavy taxes to fund his unsuccessful wars in France.

Hoover and the great depression

In 1929, the collapse of the stock market produced the beginning of the Great Depression.

The Hoover administration actually sought measures that helped lay the groundwork for Roosevelt's New Deal.

Hoover launched a massive public works program, part of which included funds for the construction of the Hoover Dam on the Colorado River. His administration implemented stronger labor protections and substantially increased federal agricultural subsidies.

Hoover also played a key role in passing the Glass-Steagall Act of 1932, which limited the activities of commercial banks in an attempt to stabilize the banking sector.

However, many of these policies were not effective immediately, and some of the administration's actions actually made the effects of depression worse.

The Smoot-Hawley Tariffs Act, for example, which Hoover signed because it had no other option, increased tariffs on thousands of imported products and initiated a trade war between the United States and Europe, thus exacerbating the global economic recession.

Although Hoover ran for re-election in 1932, his inability to mitigate the negative economic consequences of the Great Depression had made him very unpopular. He lost the elections to Democrat Franklin D. Roosevelt.
