Magna Carta, originally a medieval document addressing specific grievances of English barons against King John, has evolved into a global symbol of liberty and the fundamental principle that everyone, including leaders, is subject to the law.

this may look like a plain unassuming
piece of parchment but it's actually one
of the most famous documents in the
world Magna Carta meaning the great
Charter has inspired people across the
centuries from Thomas Jefferson to
Mahatma Gandhi but why was the charter
origin created and what does it actually
say let us take you back to Medieval
England it's the year 1215 and the ruler
is King John many people believe that
King John was one of the worst kings in
history he imprisoned his former wife he
starved his opponents to death he
allegedly murdered his own nephew and
pulled the Beards of the Irish
Chiefs King John had imposed heavy taxes
on from his Barons in order to pay for
his expensive Foreign Wars if they
refused to pay he punished them severely
or seize their property the Barons
demanded that King John obey the law
when he refused they captured London and
John was forced to
negotiate the two sides met at runy in June
June
1215 the result of the negotiations was
written down by the king's Clerks into
the document we know as Magna
carter although most of the Charter's
Clauses dealt with medieval rights and
Customs Magna Carta has become a
powerful symbol of Liberty around the
world the most famous clause which is
still part of the law today for the
first time gave all free men the right
to Justice and a fair trial no man shall
be arrested or imprisoned except by the
Judgment of their equals and by the law
of the land to no one will we sell
however this Clause was not as liberal
as it sounds the charter only applied to
free men the vast majority of people in
1215 were unfree peasants who were ruled
over by their
landowners and although Magna carter was
intended to create peace between King
John and his rebellious Barons England
was plunged into Civil War after the
pope declared the charter
invalid when King John died of dentry in
1216 99-year-old Henry III took to the
throne to keep the peace Magna Carta was
reissued several times during the 13th
century until it was finally made part
of English
law Magna carter has lived on for 800
years and is echoed in the United States
Declaration of Independence and the
universal Declaration of human rights
perhaps Magna carta's most important
Legacy is that everyone including our
leaders must obey the law what started
out as a document of specific complaints
from a group of Barons has turned into
an international symbol of Liberty
