A) Henry II
B) Henry VIII
C) Elizabeth I
D) Elizabeth II

Answer 1

A)Henry II

Step-by-step explanation:

The use of the word "freeman" was not to be taken lightly. Most historians credit Henry II in the 12th century and his development of English Common Law with inclusion of this type of language in The Magna Carta. Both of these were merely small steps, of course, in the development of equal and democratic rights.

Answer 2

Henry III had the greatest influence on the Magna Carta
