your answer
The Magna Carta was created by English barons in 1215. At that time, King John's abuse of power (such as excessive taxation, arbitrary imprisonment) led to dissatisfaction among the barons. The Magna Carta aimed to make the king abide by certain rules. It listed rights like no taxation without common consent (to some extent for barons) and the right to a fair trial. So its main goal was to protect the rights of nobles (as they were the main force behind it initially) and limit the king's power.
