Who were the members of the British House of Commons and how did they become members?
youll find the answer here but will have to put it in youre own words .... Parliament has two parts: the House of Commons and the House of Lords.In contrast to the House of Lords, the House of Commons consisted of representatives from different cities and towns (the name Commons refers to communes or communities). Some towns or areas held elections. In most cases, though, the rich nobles selected a representative from their own ranks. Traditionally, the seat would go to the wealthiest landholder in the area. There was no right to representation in Parliament; the king decided whether a town or area would have a representative in the House of Commons.Parliament's House of Commons was the voice of the propertied classes in England, sometimes called the gentry. The term gentry is often used to mean "the nobility," "the upper classes," or "the aristocracy." However, in English history, it refers to the wealthy landowners who do not have titles and are not in the House of Lords. They are the second class of wealthy people in England (below the lords). There were a few others in the House of Commons who were not gentry. In 1603, for example, about 10% of the 475 members were merchants, and about 10% were lawyers.
