📜 Topics covered:

  • The King as lawmaker, enforcer, and judge under absolute monarchy
  • How the Magna Carta and other historic movements gradually curtailed royal power
  • The rise and transformation of the nobility’s role in governance
  • The historic legal influence of the Roman Catholic Church and the later establishment of the Church of England
