Answers
Answer:
The availability or dominance of three political parties in a government is said to be three party system.
Explanation:
The Third Party System is a term of periodization used by historians and political scientists to describe the history of political parties in the United States for example.... from 1854 until the mid-1890s, which featured profound developments in issues of American nationalism, modernization, and race.
It was dominated by the new Republican Party, which claimed success in saving the Union, abolishing slavery and enfranchising the freedmen, while adopting many Whig-Party-style modernization programs such as national banks, railroads, high tariffs, homesteads, social spending (such as on greater Civil War veteran pension funding), and aid to land grant colleges. While most elections from 1876 through 1892 were extremely close, the opposition Democrats won only the 1884 and 1892 presidential elections (the Democrats also won the 1876 and 1888 presidential election popular vote, but lost the electoral college vote), though from 1876 to 1892 the party often controlled the United States House of Representatives and from 1879 to 1887 frequently controlled the United States Senate.
After 1876, the Democrats took control of the "Solid South"... It play main role in US government.
