What role did the nobility play in poland and england?

Poland: The nobility in Poland was accesible to everyone and also disorganized. A peasant could rise up to become a nobel and they were of the same official social standing as someone born into nobility. The ruling class was more an oligarchy, which is a form of government run by a small number of people such as wealthy landowners, royalty or powerful military figures, than it was a monarchy. Individuals that ruled over a small area had great local influence and were able to reject large-scale legislation. The nobility of Poland worked to decentralize power from the monarchs.

England: English nobility is a monarchy, where nobles were concentrated in the top rows of society and ruled with their own interests in mind. The monarchy was very powerful. There was a division between the monarchy and the other nobles that pursued to acquire more power. There were a series of struggles between the King and the Parliament because of the need to determine the role each should play in governing the nation. The monarchy caused Parliamentary Government to be favored due to the oppressive nature with which it once ruled.  

Explanation:

English nobility is easily imagined as a monarchy. The monarchy was very powerful and held nearly all of the influence over policy in England. However, there came to be a divide between the monarchy and the other nobles that sought to acquire more power. England was one of the prime examples of this trend of representation in government from a more extensive range of people than just the family of the king or queen. In a way, the monarchy caused the parliamentary government to be favored due to the oppressive nature with which it once ruled. Civil war took power from the monarchy and gave it to the parliament. The nobility in Poland was mostly disorganized and accessible to everyone. A peasant could rise to become a noble, and they were of the same official social standing as someone born into nobility. The ruling class was more like an oligarchy than it was a monarchy. Representation was available to a much larger number of people than in absolute monarchies that commonly existed during the same era. Individuals that ruled over a small area had a more significant local influence and were able to veto large-scale legislation. Overall, the nobility of Poland worked to decentralize power from the monarchs while increasing the holdings and power of the kingdom of Poland. Eventually, this large, disorganized noble class lost influence as Poland became subjugated to a stronger power.
