<neighbours>-<Americans> well, I assume you talked about the USonians, not the Americans, as Mexico and those below that border already have PR and multiparty systems well on their way. Norte Americanos?? <That's exactly how we got stuck> Single-seat-winner-takes-all-FPTP districts were stuck, already in the feudal 1600s when the landlord rode in to the council to decide what King to assassinate this time. <Now nobody is really happy> Old medieval two-party habit, especially considering the colonies.
