The correct answer is A. The Magna Carta

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1215, King John who was the ruler of England accepted to sign a document known as "The Magna Carta". In this important document, the king agreed to limit his power and protect certain rights. Indeed, through this document it was established the payments requested by the King should have a limit and some citizens (mainly noble citizens) had certain liberties including the right to own property. Moreover, this document is relevant even today because it was the base for other documents that protected civilians' rights.
