This engaging video explains why systems that have plurality (aka FPTP) voting tend to develop two dominant political parties, as both Britain and the US did in the 19th Century.
This is an oddly and abruptly truncated Crash Course episode on the French Revolution. I post it for this moment because the cut-off corresponds pretty well with what we've done so far. I will replace it will the full episode later. The other odd thing about this clip is that it includes a minor if GLARING error (oh John, how could you?). Can you spot it? If you think you've found the error, make a note in comments signing with only your initials please! Only about the first five minutes of this one pertains directly to our study, but they're effective review of the basics of Feudalism and Manorialism Of course, this may need updating after September 18th
