Provisions of Oxford

Read a random definition: Franks hearing

A quick definition of Provisions of Oxford:

The Provisions of Oxford were a set of rules created during the reign of King Henry III. They were made by a group of important people called the Mad Parliament, who met with some powerful barons a few times a year to talk about how to run the country and fix problems. The Provisions were made because the King wasn't doing what he was supposed to do according to another important document called Magna Carta. The Provisions worked well for a while, but then there was a big fight in 1263 and they stopped being used.

A more thorough explanation:

The Provisions of Oxford were a constitution created during the reign of Henry III in England. It was formed by the Mad Parliament and served as the King's advisory council. The council met with a group of barons several times a year to handle the country's affairs and resolve grievances. These grievances were often a result of the King's avoidance of his obligations under Magna Carta.

The Provisions were effective until the baron uprising in 1263 under Simon de Montfort.

One example of a grievance that the Provisions of Oxford aimed to resolve was the King's failure to uphold the rights granted to the barons under Magna Carta. The Provisions established a council that would meet with the barons to address these issues and ensure that the King fulfilled his obligations.

Another example is the establishment of a system for appointing judges. The Provisions required that judges be appointed based on their qualifications and not their political affiliations. This helped to ensure that the legal system was fair and impartial.

These examples illustrate how the Provisions of Oxford aimed to address issues of governance and ensure that the King fulfilled his obligations to the people of England.
