Answer (3)

False: C
The answer is C because the document spoke of nobles rights and obligations and the king's rights and obligations toward them, not toward all Englishmen. Also, t he nobles likely cared less for the common folk than Ol' King John. Hope this helps! :)

The false statement about the Magna Carta is C: 'The document assured all English citizens freedom of speech.' The Magna Carta primarily addressed the rights of the nobility and did not include provisions for freedom of speech for all citizens. It was signed by King John in 1215 at Runnymede under pressure from the barons.
