What is meant by the phrase Lower House?
Countries that have a Lower House such as Britain have that name to indicate that this was the House of Parliament where traditionally the representatives of the non-nobles met. The nobility (or elsewhere, other 'important' citizens often appointed by the King) met in the Upper House or Senate. Today and for at least the last century, the Lower House is the 'real' Parliament where most of the power is concentrated.
