European Political Parties EXPLAINED

Multi-party systems are confusing, so here's a quick guide to the main political parties in European politics.

For Americans it can be especially challenging to understand European politics, as they're so used to the Democrats and Republicans dominating the scene. Hopefully this explains the basics well enough, so you can get started on your deep dive into whatever political topic you want to research.

Note: This is obviously just a super short introduction and is based more on stereotypes than on any actual party. The continent is far too big and politics far too diverse to cover in one video. Also: The colors and names of the parties sadly don't always match up with their real life counterparts. Sorry. That's life.
