What historical document established that kings did not have unlimited rights?

  1. The Declaration of Independence

  2. The Magna Carta

  3. The Federalist Papers

  4. The Treaty of Versailles

The correct answer is: The Magna Carta

The Magna Carta is a historical document that was signed in 1215 by King John of England. It was a written agreement between the king and the barons of England, and it established that even a king must follow the laws of the land and did not have unlimited power and authority. The Declaration of Independence was a document written by the American colonies to declare their independence from Great Britain, and it did not pertain to kings' rights. The Federalist Papers were a collection of essays that aimed to gain support for the ratification of the United States Constitution, and the Treaty of Versailles was a peace treaty signed after World War I. Neither of these documents addressed the limitations of a king's power like the Magna Carta did. Therefore, they are incorrect choices for this question.
