  • Please add political parties to this list. Please keep list of countries and lists of parties in each country in alphabetical order. To distinguish minor parties from those with real power, list the current percentage of seats, rounded to the nearest percentage, in the national legislature (those with real power, not including forums with little power like the British House of Lords or the Irish Senate), indicate which parties are governing (either alone or in coalition), and indicate the party of the head of government (not heads of state with little power like the British Queen or the President of Israel).
