Historically, Venezuela has had a multi-party system, with numerous parties in which no one party often has a chance of gaining power alone, and parties must work with each other to form coalition governments. In the 2005 parliamentary elections, the Fifth Republic Movement effectively established itself as the dominant party in a dominant-party system; its position was continued by the United Socialist Party of Venezuela, into which it merged on 2007-10-20.
