can someone please give me similarities and differences between the Magna Carta and the US bill of rights.

Both of them are limits on the power of the government.

They are both written contracts of sorts that spell out what governments can and cannot do.

One major difference between these two documents is their purposes. The Magna Carta was made to prevent the angry populous from overthrowing the king. Unlike the U.S Constitution, which was simply made to set fair laws for all people in a new country

b) the importance and limits of political power.
