Answer 1

Answer:

A multi-party system is a system in which multiple political parties across the political spectrum running for national election, and all have the capacity to gain control of government offices, separately or in the coalition. Multi-party systems tend to be more common in parliamentary systems than presidential systems, and far more common in countries that use proportional representation compared to countries that use first-past-the-post elections.
