Curia governed (England)

Curia Regis is an expression Latin E meaning Royal Conseil or Cour of the King .

In England, the Curia Regis was an ecclesiastical council of noble and which advised the legislative matter king. This assembly replaced her Anglo-Saxon ancestor , the Witenagemot, after the invasion Norman of 1066.

This Royal Council was metamorphosed slowly in true a Parlement. In 1265, Simon V of Montfort, in rebellion against Henri III of England, convened an assembly of its partisans without preliminary royal authorization: the Archbishop S, bishop S, Abbot S, Count S and baron S all were convened, like two knight S for each county. The requirements of Montfort were accepted by Edouard Ier, which translated by the convocation of the Parlement models in 1295. As of the reign of Edouard III, the Parliament was divided into two rooms and adopted its modern form.

Formations of Curia governed

The Court has two formations:

a technical formation, called king in council (the king in its council), which joined together at the same time the professional king and some judges;
a political training, called king in parliament (the king in its Parliament), which brought together the same people plus the Lords.

The principle emerged that one needed the meeting of both to be able to vote a new law on the lifting of a tax.

Following Jean without Ground (which was obliged to grant the Magna Carta), came to be also added to the second formation of delegated counties (district urban) and boroughs (district rural): they are the knights (knights) and the middle-class men. These delegates form a room which is specific to them to the end of the Middle Ages, the Lower House (in opposition to the Upper House of the Lords).

It is starting from this model that will be theorized the Balance of the capacities, prelude of the Séparation of the capacities, starting from XVe century.
