Answer 1

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached or the time in history for this event, we can say the following.

People began to question the rule of man and the divine rights of kings because European kings were tyrants that exerted an absolutists form of government and were ruthless with their subjects. Kings though they had the divine right to rule their lands and conquer other territories to expand their presence. Under their reigns, common people -peasants and merchants- lived in poor conditions. In simple terms, people realized that this was not fair

The rule of law is different in that under the law, the king, the nobles, and everybody is subjected to the law. Nobody is above the law. That is why, for instance, the Barons in England force the King of Britain to sign the Magna Carta in 1215, to limit the power of the king and to have some rights for the Barons.
