Life in Britain was very hard for some, because the way that it worked then was it divided people into two social classes. Poor, and wealthy.

Now, the poor were often working as fish merchants or fruit sellers or bread sellers. Sometimes they even found flowers to sell, but of course that did not make great business. The poor usually lived in the farmhouses and tiny, apartment-like homes, and the most poor of them on the city streets.

The wealthy lived in noble homes. Many wealthy people owned other homes that commoners paid them to keep. They called this the rent. The landowners were very strict about how they wanted the house kept, so the commoners didn't have so much freedom as to keep a pet there, much like today. The wealthy also in a way, discriminated the commoners, by not giving them rights, not listening to them, and the most rude one of all was this: When a wealthy noble or Noble's daughter walked upon the cobblestone streets of old Britain and saw a commoner, they were told not to look at it and not to buy whatever it was this man or woman was selling, simply because they had less.

Now, i suppose you'll want to know when this changed, but I haven't that answer, simply the one you asked. So if you please, do type in When Life In Great Britain Changed into the text box, and see if you pick up anything. Bye, from Sayori6!

PS. I am only ten, so I hope you were well impressed by my expanded vocabulary then the other ten year olds. Thank you and good day!
