Scotland (UK Parliament constituency)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Scotland was a constituency represented in the House of Commons of the Parliament of Great Britain from 1 May 1707 to 26 May 1708, when it was divided into 45 single-member constituencies (see List of Constituencies in the Parliament of Scotland at the time of the Union).
Immediately after the Union, Scotland was not represented in the new Parliament of Great Britain by elected Members of Parliament, but rather by 45 hand-picked men who had previously been Commissioners (members) of the former Parliament of Scotland.
