Answer:

Because it was issued by the King of England to limit his own power, the English Bill of Rights represents a departure from previous political traditions in 17th century Europe.

Before the bill of rights, a King of Europe had virtually limitless power and could do whatever he wanted to his population (even killing those who simply displease him)
