Explanation:

Question 18

The Magna Carta (1215) limited the king's power, giving rights like trial by jury and limiting arbitrary taxation for European (English) citizens. The Concordat of Worms dealt with church - state relations, the Declaration of Independence is US - focused, and the Treaty of Versailles was post - WWI.

The Five Pillars (Shahada, Salat, Zakat, Sawm, Hajj) are core Islamic beliefs. Karma is Hindu/Buddhist, Filial Piety is Confucian, and Wuwei is Taoist.

The Mongol Empire's expansion created a large, stable territory (Pax Mongolica) that facilitated trade across Afro - Eurasia, improving communication. Options a - c describe negative impacts, which are incorrect as the Mongols' rule actually boosted trade.

Answer:

b. The Magna Carta
