Magna Carta was issued in June 1215 and was the first document to put into writing the principle that the king and his government was not above the law. It sought to prevent the king from exploiting his power, and placed limits of royal authority by establishing law as a power in itself.

His son, Edward I, repeated the exercise in 1297, this time confirming it as part of England's statute law. However, the Magna Carta was not unique; other legal documents of its time, both in England and beyond, made broadly similar statements of rights and limitations on the powers of the Crown.

The tyrannical rule of King John and his increasing assumption of powers created resentment among many in England, particularly his barons.
The English barons sought to protect themselves and the public at large from encroachments of royal authority.
Among the main grievances against the king was that he demanded too much money from the people in taxes.
The barons were also aware of the king’s waning power. After John waged a disastrous war in France, the barons swore to compel him to respect the rights of his subjects.
The barons presented John with a series of demands. John sought to avoid giving in to them, leading the barons to renounce their allegiance to him. They marched against him in May 1215 and soon captured London.
Forced to meet the barons at Runnymede, a meadow by the Thames, King John affixed his seal to the Magna Carta on June 15, 1215.
Careful provision was made in the Magna Carta for limiting royal taxes and assessments and for reforming laws and judicial procedures.
In addition, the Magna Carta provided certain guarantees for the people as a whole. Although much of the document dealt with feudal rights and duties, it also included provisions to protect the rights of the church, merchants, and townspeople.
The Magna Carta stated that people could not be punished for crimes unless they were lawfully convicted.
The charter also gave the barons the right to declare war on the king if he did not follow its provisions.
As significant as the Magna Carta was to people of the 1200s, the charter proved to be even more important to subsequent generations. It was the first step in establishing England’s constitution, and many other countries later used the principles of the Magna Carta in their constitutions too.
In the 17th century, when England’s North American colonies were shaping their own fundamental laws, the words of the Magna Carta were worked into them. The basic rights later embodied in the Constitution of the United States and the Bill of Rights echo the charter, and the Fourteenth Amendment can trace its ancestry to the Magna Carta as well.
The Carter Effect is a 2017 documentary film directed by Sean Menard. [1] It covers the impact of Vince Carter in Canada when he was still playing for the Toronto Raptors of the National Basketball Association (NBA).
The Carter Doctrine stated that the USA was prepared to use force to stop any country from gaining control over the oil rich states of the Middle East.
Magna Carta is significant because it is a statement of law that applied to the kings as well as to his subjects. Although the idea of England as a community with a law of the land independent of the will of the king was implicit in custom before 1215, Magna Carta gave this concept its first clear expression in writing.
Three ways Magna Carta changed the world. On June 15 1215, King John met with a band of 25 rebel barons in Runnymede, Surrey, and begrudgingly signed Magna Carta (Latin for great charter).
