The English Bill of Rights, enacted in 1689, was a landmark document that established limits on the powers of the monarchy and set out the rights of Parliament. It ensured several fundamental rights, including the right to free elections and the prohibition of excessive bail and cruel and unusual punishments, thereby enhancing the role of Parliament in governance.
