Answer: Even the king of England to obey the laws of the land

Step-by-step explanation:

The very famous Magna Carter was a document issued by King John in 1215 as a peace agreement between the Crown and rebel Barons. Drawn up by the Archbishop of Canterbury, it established that everyone in England, including the King were subject to the laws of the land and cannot act above it.

This document served and serves as a cornerstone of the British Constitution.
