Late Italian First Republic party system with M5S politicians
A table inspired by the wide variety of positions taken by (current or former) Five Star Movement politicians.
The final years of Prima Repubblica (these are the top twelve parties in 1992 general election) were the beginning of a period of radical transformation of the Italian party system: it saw decades-old declining forces, renewed parties and brand new movements briefly coexist. Five Star movement (sans the decades-old thing) has been all of the three things above.
The only modification, in terms of party names, was to rename Pannella List as Radical Party because of the actual leader's name in the party name.

Informal groupings of European national parties in late 19th/early 20th century
Informal groupings of European national parties in late 19th/early 20th century
An attempt to identify possible groupings of national parties in a scenario where better relationships between European countries in the second half of the nineteenth century lead to create some sort of very weak supranational organisation with its representative assembly.
Members would be appointed in the most different ways by each country with few, if any, uniform rules. Moreover, seating in the assembly would be more likely be based on country rather than ideology. These groupings would be extremely loose and all but formal, mostly used for classification purposes with a high chance of frequent change in positioning of the parties (overall something somewhat akin to the official classification of parties used OTL by the French Ministry of the Interior in the event of an election). Actual cases of continuous cooperation would be not very common and in the case of groupings such as national conservatives and especially reactionaries, you may even find conflicting views among parties grouped together regarding, for example, border disputes and irredentism.

Communists
Socialists
Social democrats
Radicals
Left-liberals
Right-liberals
Regionalists and separatists
Agrarians
Catholics
Protestants
Moderate conservatives
National conservatives
Reactionaries
