Question

What did the Magna Carta of 1215 share with the English Bill of Rights, the American Declaration of Independence, and the French Declaration of Rights of Man and Citizen?

All of the documents increased the right to assembly and to have an audience with the king.

All of these documents attempted to limit power of the kings and queens.

All of these documents had little actual effect on the cultures that produced them.

All of the documents applied to the same class or level of society.

Answer 1

All of these documents attempted to limit power of the kings and queens.

They each challenged or constrained monarchical authority: Magna Carta (1215) forced the king to accept legal limits, the English Bill of Rights (1689) curtailed royal prerogative and enhanced Parliament, the American Declaration (1776) rejected British royal rule and asserted popular sovereignty, and the French Declaration (1789) declared rights that limited monarchical power.
