The constitutional development of Hungary has frequently been compared with that of England, for the Constitution is not embodied in any one instrument, but is contained in numerous laws which may be altered by the regular legislative processes. However, in Hungary the Constitution has been embodied in written laws to a much greater extent than in England. The most important of the earlier constitutional documents of Hungary is the Bulla Aurea of Andreas II, which was issued in 1222 1 and which bears a striking resemblance to the English Magna Carta of 1215. Bulla Aurea is now chiefly of historical interest, but is of importance as one of the first steps in a long and continuous constitutional development. Ferdinand I of Austria was chosen King of Hungary in 1526, after the Hungarian forces had been signally defeated by the Turks at the battle of Mohacs. The Hapsburgs constantly endeavored to reduce Hungary to the position of a province of the Empire, and to abolish its independent national institutions. However, by the Pragmatic Sanction, which was embodied in three Hungarian laws of 1722-23, the rights of Hungary were guaranteed. Notwithstanding the guaranty of Hungarian institutions the efforts to weaken or destroy them continued, and it was only in 1848 that the revolutionary movement finally enabled the liberal members of the Diet to carry their measures. Thirty-one laws, embodying among other tilings the Hungarian demands for a separate responsible ministry and for annual sessions of the Diet, were enacted and were approved by the Emperor on 11 April 1848. Under these laws Hungary became practically independent, uniting with Austria by a personal union. An attempt on the part of Hungary to secure complete independence resulted in the surrender of the ...
England's Magna Carta and it's influence on America's Bill of Rights In 1215 King John agreed to the terms of the Magna Carta following the uprising of a group of rebel barons in England. The barons captured London in May 1215, which forced King John's hand and caused him to finally negotiate with the group, and the Magna Carta was created as a peace treaty between the king and the rebels. The document was written in Latin, and the original Magna Carta had 63 clauses. Today, only three of these remain on the British statute books; one defends the liberties and rights of the English Church, another confirms the liberties and customs of London and other towns, and the third gives all English subjects the right to justice and a fair trial. The third says: "No free man shall be seized or imprisoned, or stripped of his rights or possessions, or outlawed or exiled, or deprived of his standing in any other way, nor will we proceed with force against him, or send others to do so, except by the lawful judgement of his equals or by the law of the land. Inspiration for America The Magna Carta greatly influenced Americas founding fathers when writing America's Bill of Rights. During the American Revolution, the Magna Carta served to inspire and justify action in liberty's defense. The colonists believed they were entitled to the same rights as Englishmen, rights guaranteed in the Magna Carta. They embedded those rights into the laws of their states and later into the Constitution and Bill of Rights. The Fifth Amendment to the Constitution ("no person shall . . . be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.") is a direct descendent of Magna Carta's guarantee of proceedings according to the "law of the land."
