Minority and Majority government have some similarities but they also have their differences. Minority government means is when the winning party has the most seats, but the other parties altogether have more than the winning party.

A disadvantage is that the others parties could go against…

The relationship between the majority and minority in America has been a shaky, rocky road. Whites and all the other races have had quite an interesting relationship, with lots of ups and downs. The history reveals many nasty, shady events that can be placed on both sides.

The power of the majority is threatening, as Tocqueville states, “It is of the very essence of democratic governments that the empire of the majority is absolute; for in democracies, outside the majority there is nothing that resists it” (1.2.7.235).
