@sogerc1 ...not to mention the ongoing Russian military occupation of Abkhazia and South Ossetia.

@sleepyjoe7843 Do I really need to? You could check it out for yourself, but here goes. Parliamentary democracies form a cabinet that enjoys majority support in parliament, hence the term. The head of state -- the king, queen or president -- has either just a titular role or has residual powers only. The head of government -- the PM or chancellor -- rules the roost, but only with enduring parliamentary support. Voters typically do elect the PM, who heads the winning party. Exceptions to the rule exist, because it's still all about parliamentary majorities. If you can bring yourself to mosey over to Wikipedia, for instance, and read the entry for the Democracy Index, you may be astonished that parliamentary democracies dominate the top 10. Weird, huh? So, was I right about your Muricanness? It would explain your ignorance fixation.

@sleepyjoe7843 Uh-oh, "sleepyjoe" doesn't understand how parliamentary democracies work. And he claims to be from Belgium. I smell a Murican with a fixation on all things Murican.

Are you suggesting that unlike the Ukrainians, the Georgians willingly allow Russia to lord over them, implying that the Georgians are weak and submissive? I suspect that claim says more about you than it says about the Georgians. You may want to grow a pair, buddy.

@sleepyjoe7843 Which part of "typically" don't you understand? Belgium is practically ungovernable, and if you ask me, it shouldn't exist in the first place and should be put out its misery soonest. To give you a clue about my clues, I studied political science at KU Leuven. Not only that, I voted in said 2019 federal election (don't ask me why I bother). As I hinted earlier, the shaky coalition government formed by MR/OpenVLD and CD&V enjoyed a parliamentary majority -- till it didn't and then did again. Summa summarum, Belgium isn't a political circus because of parliamentarism. It still hangs together -- barely -- thanks to parliamentarism, which is a supreme testament to the resilience of the system. It does raise the question, however, why bother keeping the country together against all odds?

@Jimmy-ye3wg There's Jimmy again, hoping that his inbred submissiveness will rub off on the Georgians. I have a higher opinion of the Georgians. By the looks of it, they're like the Ukrainians, who refuse to kowtow to a foreign bully.
