Here's Canada if it had a true two-party system (no NDP, Bloc or Greens) like the US'. The results based on current poll numbers.

My God!

Hey, try a "Nostalgia Edition: The Eighties" edition where Bloc Quebecois and Greens are non-existent. That would be interesting.

I don't know if you understand how dire the situation was for Germany in the RCW-verse, but they were on the verge of collapsing by the time of Berlin, they literally needed any man, woman or child who could hold a gun to fight, this included the Kaiser, (as I mentioned before, they tried to get his father to leave, but he refused, and subsequently so did Wilhelm III, do you expect the Army to force the Kaiser to do something he doesn't want to do?, and don't even mention a coup, the Army had no time for such silly thoughts with five armies pushing them back they needed to fight), if France and Austria hadn't wasted resources attempting to Siege Berlin instead of outright attacking, and on other fronts, Germany would have certainly lost the War. and then subject to a extermination of horrific proportions by the French, it was a War of National Survival, and Germany was going to either win or be eliminated from the face of the Earth, and every German had to stand and fight the Fascist invaders, even to the point that the Kaiser himself had to fight.

Indeed, the early years of the War were quick and unexpected defeats for the Imperial German Army, who were quickly steamrolled all the way across Germany to Brandenburg and Prussia proper. (pre-Napoleonic Prussia).

It really isn't hard to order about 3 men to beat him unconscious and drag his arse out of the dangerzone. For the continuity of government and all if Berlin was to fall.

Beat the Kaiser unconscious? they would never dare do that.

You mean an election with just the three largest parties?

Perfect infobox, minus the fact that she died in 2002 in the TL, not 1997 (mainly because I only just remembered about her then)

Here it is. I couldn't believe the seat totals when it all came together.

I put Mulcair as PM because the NDP won a plurality of popular votes, so I'd assume he would get asked to be PM instead of Trudeau in this scenario.

Why not, their first duty is to keep him safe. Even from himself

Speaking of the Battle of Berlin, here is a info box for it.

and yes, Goebbels is the Leading Commander, like many of OTL's Nazis, he had a radically different life in the RCW-verse.

to keep Bulgaria from getting too strong, & by it getting Italy too strong, & by it getting Germany too strong. And also to keep from destabilizing the Ottomans too much. i mean with eastern Thrace gone its just a quick step & Constantinople falls to Bulgaria, or Russia, or Austria, or Germany

UK General Election, 2004
The Lib-Lab coalition became increasingly strained under Jack Straw: He had never been enthusiastic about it in the 1990s, and now seemed to be actively antagonistic towards his coalition parters. These relations worsened after Penhaligon resigned and was replaced by former athlete Ming Campbell. In September 2003 the Liberals surprised almost everyone by walking out on the coalition, citing Straw's Euroscepticism and refusal to back down on touchstone Liberal issues such as ID cards. Straw's government hobbled on until April of next year, when the Liberals and Tories brought down the government, hoping or make gains at Straw's expense. A poor campaign and the leakage of an attempt to form a Lib-Con coalition government in 2003 dashed Maude's hope of a landslide, but he managed to win a threadbare majority regardless. Maude could also feel safe from the threat of backbench rebellions thanks to a deal with the Democracy Alliance where they got two cabinet posts.

The strange part is that the seats match the popular vote so well--usually in FPTP you can get very similar popular vote scores and drastically different seat numbers.

Callan · May 4, 2014

Also, the Leadership election which made Straw PM. I didn't post it earlier because it would reveal how long he'd last. Straw is the obvious favourite, being a popular Home Secretary and Owen's protege. This didn't stop challengers: ultramoderniser Tony Blair, Ken Livingstone arguing a breaking off the coalition an moving to the left, Mo Mowlam (who is healthier ITTL) arguing for a "more forceful government" and Vince Cable, who was the only candidate arguing for closer relations with the Liberals.

Canadian FPTP tends to be quite nice in that regard. Of course, when you eff it up like in the 90s, it turns nasty to some parties, but overall, its nice.
