D. gave more power to the people and protected their rights

The Magna Carta limited the power of the monarch and expressed rights for certain people that needed to be protected by the monarch.

The Manga Carta was originally passed in 1215 and is the first written Constitution in Europe. The British monarch was limited in their power when dealing with the elite, landowning population of England. The rights outlined in the Magna Carta protected only a small portion of England's population. The document would continue to be revised and would inspire more documents similar to it both in England and other countries, such as the US.

An important effect of the Magna Carta on the English government was that it:

(D) Gave more power to the people and protected their rights.

Further explanation

The Magna Carta is a charter signed between King John and the English barons on June 15, 1215. The text evolved throughout the 13th century, but the main philosophy remained the same. It was a limitation of monarch power and strengthening the aristocrats and religious leaders, because of the poor were not concerned by this evolution.

The Magna Carta charter guarantee:

The freedom of the church; The non-intervention of the king in the property of the lands by the nobles; The creation of a council which gives its opinion on the policy of the king; The ban on arresting a free man without proof.

The main benefit for the people was the emergence of justice independent of executive power. It was fairer than the arbitrary justice which existed before. The new great council allowed the English kings to be controlled as well. So they did not deviate too much towards an authoritarian system.

The English revolutionaries relied on this Magna Carta to set up a democratic system and to prevent the appearance of absolute monarchy in their country.
