The Magna Carta and the English Bill of Rights

both served to

(1) extend the voting privileges of commoners

(2) abolish the government's role in levying taxes

(3) limit the power of the monarchy

(4) support the theory of the divine right of kings

The correct answer is: (3) limit the power of the monarchy

For example, Magna Carta limited the power of the king to raise new taxes without an agreement of the council and limited the king in imprisoning barons without a fair trial.

The English Bill of Rights further limited the power of the king and introduced more democratic principles.
