Answer:

The Magna Carta or "Magna Carta Libertatum" has been fundamental for the American democracy, not only due being inspirational for the American Revolution to happen but as a keystone for the subsequent stages of the new nation such as the inception of the citizen's individual rights and the assembly of a more egalitarian society.

This document can be traced back to June 1215.
