What country do you reckon has the most interesting political system
I am very intrigued by the countries that have multiple major political parties.I wish we had that in America.I am so tired of the Democrat/Republican Duopoly of politics in my country.I am also kind of interested in theocracies.I think in some ways Vatican is most interesting.because they are a very tiny country but has billions to trillions in wealth in the form of the Catholic Church and its assets and is the center of a huge billion something member denomination.The Vatican poltical sytem has been through so much interesting history.I am very interested in the politics of the German political system so Germany is prolly the country I am most interested in politically outside of my own.I am against all modern theocracries.
About a decade ago I became fascinated by how countries systems worked and I don't know a lot, as I concentrated on the basics first from a UK perspective and then from others. I wanted to know about the Nazis, what they believed in and how they ended up becoming the horrid thing they became... But I needed to look back into the history of what had happened before. These are things that in the past we didn't know because no one of past generations would talk and TV didn't in the past cover it because there were natrually bad feelings about it.
But the same as other systems. How did Communism work. What was a dictator? How did a dictator rule? What was a Monarchy? Etc etc etc...
I don't pretend to know everything as I get some things wrong as I learn. As several years ago I did not know who was left or right in politics. I just knew parties names and what it was like to be under Labour rule, and what it was to be like under Conservative rule, and then a very altered "New Labour" came in under Blair which was so close to the Conservitives that the only way the inbetween party (Liberal Democrats) had to go was to go all out "Green" and somehow be different from the Green party! A LOT happened in UK politics back then!
