Laws regarding trade and taxation
The correct answer is: Freedom of conscience and religion; freedom of thought, belief, and expression; including of speech and of the press; of peaceful assembly; and of association.
The Magna Carta was a document that established the principle that everyone, including the king, was subject to the law. It specifically addressed the rights and privileges of the barons and the Church, but it also included broader clauses that applied to all free men. Option A is incorrect because the idea of education and healthcare rights did not exist in the 13th century when the Magna Carta was written. Option C is incorrect because the right to bear arms and trial by jury were not part of the Magna Carta, as they were not established as rights until later in history. Option D is also incorrect because while trade and taxation may have been mentioned in the Magna Carta, it was not the primary focus of the document. Therefore, option B is the correct answer as it accurately describes the main components and purpose of the Magna Carta.
