Summary The Magna Carta was the first document forced onto a King of England by a group of his subjects, the feudal barons, in an attempt to limit his powers by law and protect their rights. The charter is widely known throughout the English speaking world as an important part of the protracted historical process that led to the rule of constitutional law in England and beyond. The Magna Carta is thought to be one of the main sources of inspiration for the U.S. Constitution's Bill of Rights.
