All this different parties... I know none of them

Well, for US starters take a look here: www.election-results.eu

The different parties are all lined up under umbrella groups in the EU parliament, with Social Democrats, Greens, Leftists and Liberals all roughly what Democrats are in the US. While EPP, ECR, EFDD, ENF parties are mostly what you can refer to as Republicans (but only ECR, EFDD and ENF are Trumpish, while the EPP is moderately conservative).

As you can see, the blocks split down to ca. 48% "Center-Left-Liberal" vs. 47% "Center-Right-Conservative-FarRight" and another 5% others or newly elected members (who will choose sides soon, or not).

Thank you.
