It did not really limit the power of the king, and it did not do away with feudalism: barons did much better under this document, but serfs were still serfs. The Magna Carta was an important first step towards giving rights to all citizens of England; but while in theory it provided for limitations on King John's power and gave the barons more rights, in practice the document was ignored and many of its provisions (even the ones the barons had hoped for) were not always enforced.
