The U.S. is often described as a two-party system. The Democrats and the Republicans are said to hold a duopoly, meaning that they share almost all the political power in the country. Several other countries have a larger number of parties. For example, Japan has at least four parties and Israel has at least twelve parties each vying for power in the elections. Please explain at least 2 ways in which the U.S. government and electoral process would change if a third party emerged and political power in the U.S. was split across three political parties instead of two.

Answer:
The United States has only two major political parties: the Democrats and the Republicans. These parties have a Duopoly, meaning that they share almost all the political power in the country.
Parties In Other Democracies
Most democratic countries have more than two parties. In Israel, for example, twelve parties or party alliances held seats in the seventeenth Knesset. Japan has several major parties, including the Liberal Democratic Party, the Democratic Party of Japan, the New Komeito, and the Japanese Communist Party.
The Electoral System
In the United States, a candidate wins the election by gaining a Plurality, or more votes than any other candidate. This is a Winner-Take-All System because there is no reward for the party or candidate that finishes second. Parties aim to be as large as possible, smoothing over differences among candidates and voters. There is no incentive to form a party that consistently gets votes but cannot win an election. As a result, two political parties usually dominate plurality electoral systems to the disadvantage of smaller third parties, just as the Democrats and the Republicans dominate the American political system. No one person or organization prevents third parties from forming, but the plurality system itself usually hinders their efforts to win votes.
The United States also has mostly Single-Member Districts, meaning that each legislative district sends only one member to the legislature. There is no benefit to finishing second. Some countries use Multiple-Member Districts, which makes it easier for minor parties to succeed because there are more members winning seats in the legislature.
The Electoral College
The Electoral College exacerbates the winner-take-all system because in all but two states, whoever wins the most popular votes wins all of the state’s electoral votes in the presidential election. The electoral rules favor a two-party system, and minor parties have a very difficult time competing in such a system. Even successful third-party candidates often fail to get a single electoral vote.

Napoleon’s French empire was the greatest empire since the ... empire
Is it the British Empire?
Or the Roman Empire ?
thanks !
Answers
Answer:
British... look below
Explanation:
Both of the empires listed were great but the British empire was right before the French. The Roman empire was 1000+ years before. The Roman empire was similar to the French one as they both controlled much of Europe. The British empire didn't control Europe. It controlled the Americas and much of Indonesia/Asia. So it is kind of tough to say but if you are going by the amount of years between them, then its the British.
HOWEVER, if you are talking about the size and amount of power, then probably Roman. But the way this question is phrased, it seems like its talking about years (which would then be British). Sorry I made this a bit confusing lol
