They do seem to have a lot of "regime" changes for the past 50 years...anyone want to help me on that?

It's just the way the government is set up. All of the little coalitions give a lot of power to small groups. A minor party that leaves the coalition can collapse the government. It's not that they have a "regime" change, it's just that they need to have new elections every time the parliamentary coalition collapses. I think the average is about every 10 months.

Thank you.

They have a "parliamentary" form of government...(which I wish for here sometimes). In your estimation, how long can Burlesconi hold on?....I like the guy, don't make me cry!...heh heh heh...
