Correct answer
Explanation
King John of England was forced to sign Magna Carta (Great Charter) in 1215 by rebellious barons at Runnymede. This document limited royal power and established principles like due process. Henry II and VIII came later, and William II (William Rufus) ruled before John. Magna Carta influenced constitutionalism worldwide.
