Any polity where the nobility were relatively strong and the monarch was relatively weak had a sort of "democracy", where landed gentry made the important calls, not the King. Poland's "golden liberty" is an excellent example. However, these should not be considered "proto-democracies", because only a tiny percentage of the population could vote. I dislike the conception of the Magna Carta as a unique Bill of Rights type document. That is a Victorian distortion of history. It's just a charter confirming the rights of the most powerful nobles against the King - lots of polities had something like that.
