Political parties that compete in countries whose reference entry describes the government as a parliamentary republic, a parliamentary democracy or a constitutional monarchy, where the head of government is answerable to the legislature. Examples include the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party, Brothers of Italy, the Pakistan Muslim League (N), the Prosperity Party in Ethiopia, the Liberal Party of Canada and the Bhumjaithai Party in Thailand. A party belongs here when its own country is described in those terms.
