created the idea of limiting the Kings Power and created the idea of individual rights
Main Points:
Limited Government – barons could meet and overrule the King
The Rule of Law – the King wasn’t above the law – he had to follow the law
Individual Rights – due process of law, Proof of Crime, own property, protected from unfair taxes
Shared Power – allowed people to be given rights besides all the power (rights) going to the King

6. VOCAB DIVINE – God or God-like
SOVEREIGNTY – highest power – someone is the sovereign when they are king
ENTITIES – an individual, person
SCUTAGE – when a Lord pays his Baron money, so he doesn’t have to serve in the Army
