The Magna Carta Explained: Global History Review

[@VidzMisc]

i love your videos, i watch them then end up reading countless books on the various topics covered

[@BWright121294]

do you have a goodreads, book list or could you give any recommendations. I want to stay with factual text and as little commentary as possible.

“That’s was lined out like 1000 years before, that was in 1100”..................k

[@walterdennisclark]

Keith, Habeas Corpus was to prevent arbitrary punishment. Wasn't it implied in 1215 and indeed in 1791, that this limitation on government's ability to punish be constrained by showing harm was done? But since then the constraint imposed by Habeas Corpus has come to mean there must be a trial. What happened to the idea of harm? It is now assumed that a mere violation of a rule is harm. But is it always? Is it usually even? Most laws since the late 20th Century are regulatory in nature where there is no defendant and the only witness is a government monitor. The focus is preventing harm with action by the State. But no matter how much you like the State, it has to be admitted that it exists only by force and its only tool is force. Thus to prevent harm it must punish before that harm is committed. Somewhere in our history, probably the New Deal, and the notion of positive rights, the government has become arbitrary again. It can make up a rule, any rule and it is the rule that is used in the trial. Not the concept of harm. The idea of "standing" is no longer limited to those claiming injury. The government has automatic standing.

I can't tell you the last time I heard the intro music to _Mama's Family._ Wow, that was pulled outta the ether!

[@Mrmidknight-yx9pg]

What wasnt it sign in 1251?

[@havijulia4385]

Were there any powers that the king still had after the Magna Carta? please answere!

[@hiphughes]

I think their biggest power is there still controlled the military and in many cases they challenged the Magna Carta with violence. There might be a better answer I would recommend googling it and finding a good source.

Please please put subtitle :( the way u speak is just too fast for non native English speakers

Plus one for using the Kids in the Hall theme...just enough to not have to pay royalties, too. ;)

[@thornythorns]

One tiny thing, that makes no real difference. Over on this side of the pond we call him Richard the "Lionheart", not "Lionhearted". Or, of course, you can go all out and call him "Coeur de Lion", what with his French heritage and all that. Love the vids, btw - keep 'em coming!

[@wescray6119]

do people actually think we are free?

[@bigbosscaos3923]

Define free. There are many interpretations of the word free. Compared to the rest of the world yes. People misconcept what "freedom" is. Freedom comes with rules so that one can't take another's freedom away. Laws maintaine freedom although we tend to have laws that take some if it away. Freedom means you have the right to free think, invent, pioneer, travel, express self opinion, practice your religion, and to pursue happiness in your own way unless it causes harm to others or society. Freedom doesn't mean you can do what ever you want with out punishment. You can't murder someone and call it a right. Doing drugs of what ever you want as in cocaine, meth, heroin. Sure it's your body but it'll cause a medical epidemic. The point of freedom is being able to coexist with others and to accomplish goals in your own way with out government interference unless it's something the government should intervene in that would result negatively to others or society The government's role is supposed to be a series of elected officials that manage the country to sustain social order and stability and to oversee any foreign threats that may not agree with our cultures and philosophies. So, yes in away we are free. However, we have a lot of issues that need to be fixed. We are better off than we were 100 years ago. But, we still have tons of work to do. We'll eventually get there. P.S this is just an overview not neccesarily saying we are a perfect world. After all, we are only human....

[@DANVIIL]

I wish America had the Magna Carta today. Our Constitution has failed so miserably and strayed so far from what was fought for in 1776.

[@frankwyatt627]

1100 to 1215 is not a thousand years there sailor.

[@walterdennisclark]

Often overlooked is what side the general is on and what he regards as "locus standi". Stephan Langton and the Council of 25 Barons . . . for them to mean anything in history requires that the king acknowledges their legitimacy. And that can only happen if the king estimates that the general considers them legitimate. It is the officer in the king’s chamber who orders the guards to apprehend either king or rebel, that determines history. And before that decision, Stephan Langton and the Council of 25 Barons must have somehow been elevated to the position of possibly being the ones to follow as judged by the general. Or in modern times, by the electorate. Suggestion for a topic: How does society come up with a group whose views eventually have standing.

🔥🌊🔥🌊🔥🌊🔥🌊🔥🌊🔥🌊 Shawn Carter aka Jay Z got this concept from this medieval knowing!

[@daylight4169]

So they basically threatened him to sign it. Anything signed under those conditions today would be automatically void. You can't enforce a contract that's signed under duress and threat of coercion. What if that's why cops can walk all over citizens, cause we actually have no rights. :|

[@ericadams3428]

It was annulled by the pope for that reason in 1215. This is why it was reissued with slight changes in 1216, 1217, 1225 and 1297

[@BluesBerrySludgeFest]

King John allied with Pope Innocent III, not Pope Innocent II.

[@manner8285]

Thank you for remind me about it I thought it was 1217

[@hiphughes]

There was another revision I believe in 1217 and then like a million times after that.

[@dirtycanuck]

1215 on article 63 states it's forever binding meaning can NOT be undone hence why it was celebrated in 2015 800th anniversary

[@jamesbatey8639]

It's Richard the lionheart

[@madMARTYNmarsh1981]

Magna Carta is needed in England now, more than ever. The rights of the English are gone! We are being erased.

Because talking about the magna carta always makes you a big hit at parties. :(

[@jennifermuniz6802]

Hi

[@hiphughes]

Hi

[@johnhumphrey9953]

The Magna Carta, "The Great Gift", was a Gift from God, given only important people some rights, to make the Kings actions more predictable. It was the opinion of the people that the King was chosen by God, and therefore Sovereign. Since, the King was Sovereign, he could not be sued in any Court on this Earth without his Consent. It is the opinion of the Supreme Court that the federal government as well as the state governments are sovereign. In other words the governments derive their authority from God.

It's all religious nonsense

[@madMARTYNmarsh1981]

I am an Atheist, not a tub thumping atheist, but still atheist. Most of the rights people have today are based on the religious sentiment of equality under god. All men are equal, etcetera. Religion has started a lot of wars in the past, but it has also given us most of what we call our freedoms today. Europe and North America would be very different places today if Paganism or Islam had defined what they are.
