In the early 13th century, England suffered through the worst monarch it would have in its history: King John.

John and his arbitrary policies and high taxation angered the nobility, the church, and the common people.

However, out of his disastrous reign came something good. An uprising against his rule forced him to sign a document establishing fundamental principles of limited government, the rule of law, and individual rights, marking a crucial milestone in developing constitutional and legal frameworks.

Learn more about the Magna Carta, how it came about, and its significance on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
