King John was forced to sign the Magna Carta by a group of powerful barons, who were unhappy with his increasing taxation and his profitless wars in France. The barons had the support of Prince Louis of France and King Alexander II of the Scots.

King John partly repudiated part of the agreement, which led to the First Barons War from 1215 to 1217, and the crowning of Henry III after King John's death from dysentery.

The English nobles literally chased King John down and forced him to sign the Magna Carta. From this point on in history, just about every king and queen of the United Kingdom have generally followed the clauses of this charter.
