Answer:

The Magna Carta means a great charter. King John signed the Magna Carta when rebel barons captured London on May 1215, it was a peace treaty between the king and the rebels. It was written in Latin and contains 63 clauses. The second Magna Carta was issued by Henry third in 1225. According to King Henry's Magna Carta, the king cannot levy Taxes without the approval of the "common Counsel" of the kingdom.
