Line 8: == Comparisons with other party systems == Unlike a [[One-party state\|one-party system]] (or a [[dominant-party system]]), a ~~many~~multi-party system encourages the general [[constituency]] to form multiple distinct, officially recognized groups, generally called [[political party\|political parties]]. Each party competes for votes from the [[suffrage\|enfranchised]] constituents (those allowed to vote). A ~~many~~multi-party system prevents the leadership of a single party from controlling a single [[legislative]] chamber without challenge. A system where only two parties have a realistic possibility of winning an election is called a two-party system. A system where only three parties have a ''realistic possibility'' of winning an election or forming a [[coalition government\|coalition]] is sometimes called a "[[Third party (politics)\|third-party]] system".{{Cn\|date=July 2024}} Line 15: == By country == [[Argentina]], [[Armenia]], [[Belgium]], [[Brazil]], [[Canada]], [[Denmark]], [[Finland]], [[France]], [[Germany]], [[Iceland]], [[India]], [[Indonesia]], [[Republic of Ireland\|Ireland]], the [[Netherlands]], [[New Zealand]], [[Norway]], the [[Philippines]], [[Poland]], [[Sweden]], [[Tunisia]], [[Turkey]] and [[Ukraine]] are examples of countries with ~~many~~multi-party systems. ==See also==
