Magna Carta is the title given to the document that represents all the rights and duties that a society incorporated as a nation must enjoy and fulfill respectively. The etymology of the term takes us to the time of the monarchy when King John I of England was forced to carry out a legal order practically at the request of the people, in view of all the problems that arose in society. At this time it was known by the Latin "Magna charta libertatum". The Magna Carta can be compared to the Law of the XII Tables in which all the rules and conditions were written by which it is used to order the public everything that must be done to continue with the course of evolution.
Historically, all countries have written their legal system for the correct conduct of society, However, in view of the fact that the spirit of a Magna Carta is democracy, freedom and plurality of thought, based on the best ethical principles, Many countries have made books or writings to base their laws around religious beliefs and these compendiums of laws cannot be called Magna Carta, because they do not have the basic foundations of its conception.
Many countries such as Mexico, Venezuela and the countries liberated by Simón Bolívar obtained their document of constitution and representation before the world after independence, which gave them autonomy from the Spanish yoke or another.
