For hundreds of years Germany has been generating strong emotions among Poles due to historical events, politics, economical strength. There are certain elements in the German state that should undoubtedly be a model for Poles.
Our western neighbour has good electoral ordination and electoral law, which is beneficial for both German society and multi-vector parties.
Quick settlements
Local elections are held all 5 years in Poland. We elect councillors of municipalities, territory councillors, provincial councillors (in Warsaw there are besides elections to territory councils), as well as representatives of executive authorities in municipalities (watwotów, presidents, mayors). While the election of the president and councillors of the cities raises public interest, the election to the provincial Sejm does not concern anyone and the politically middle-aged people have no thought what this election is about. I personally am curious in politics above all, and of those who sit in the Provincial Sejm I only associate erstwhile city presidents and erstwhile MPs. In Germany elections to Landtags non-synchronous events are held (elections are held in the lands at different dates). As a result, the election run continues all the time and politicians, both at local and central level, must take care of themselves, due to the fact that the punishment for failure to make electoral promises can affect them at any time (although differences between the states, elections in them always reflect social sentiments). In Poland, after a fewer months no 1 remembers the various scandals, and in Germany settlements through an electoral card can happen very quickly.
In Poland, 460 Members are elected in 41 constituencies. In Germany there is mixed ordination. There are 16 constituencies in the proportional part of the election (each land forms a constituency). The large constituency makes it possible for multi-vector groups to have more opportunities for mandates. In Poland, in tiny constituencies, specified as the Częstochowa district, the actual electoral threshold is 16-19%.
Croatian independence
Croatia is simply a very close ally of Germany. German politics have been more or little subordinate to Anglo-Saxon politics for many years. Nevertheless, even in relations with the Russian Federation or the People's Republic of China, German politicians are able to run a policy that takes into account the interests of Germany and not just the Anglo-Saxons. The same is actual in Croatia, where the Anglo-Saxons have large influence, but the Croatian political scene has always been German-oriented.
Former president of Croatia Kolinda Grabar-Kitarović from the centre-right Croatian Democratic Community (in 1990, during the President's time) FranjoTuđmana This group could be regarded as postustaszowskie) could ride to the tops of Trimorze and at the same time do business with the Russian Federation, which were beneficial for the Croatian state. In Croatia, the president is Zoran Milanović from the Social Democratic organization of Croatia. Milanović is simply a real political original, due to the fact that he is most likely the only socialist in Europe. Milanović speaks right about the slaves of America (in relation to European politicians). He besides said Kosovo was Serbia. The governing centre-rights in Croatia are nevertheless far from the Nadwiślan and Baltic war instigators in the interests of the Anglo-Saxons.
Regulation of diversity
Croatia has a beautiful good election ordination. The Croatian parliament has 151 members. 140 seats are elected in 10 constituencies (the electoral threshold is 5% in the constituency, not nationwide – which gives a chance for mandates for smaller committees). 3 mandates are provided for Croats surviving abroad (centralist takes everything, in each election winning over 80% of their votes; Croatians from Bosnia and Herzegovina support chadeks, and the Post-Sustian diaspora in South America and North America besides vote for them). 3 mandates are provided for the Serbian minority. 1 mandate is provided for the Hungarian minority, 1 for the Czechs and Slovaks. An Italian number besides has 1 mandate guaranteed. For the last 2 mandates there is simply a fierce fight, as 1 mandate is provided for minorities bringing together nations forming titular republics in Yugoslavia – Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Macedonians, Slovenians (plus Albanians), another minorities registered in Croatia (Poles besides have the right to fight for this mandate). Nadwiślański politicians are in endless ecstasy towards the large Lithuanian-Polish relations. However, in Lithuania, Poles have no mandate guaranteed, and Serbs in Croatia have their mandates provided, even though there are much less of them than Poles in Lithuania, and the Croats and Serbs fought a bloody war little than 30 years ago.
As we can see, both in Germany and Croatia (a close ally of Germany), electoral law is designed so that multi-vector parties have a much better chance of being present. In addition, the regional elections in Germany make politicians always gotta watch out due to the fact that voters can settle them very quickly.
