Germany runs a multi-party democracy with Angela Merkel of the CDU/CSU as her first female Chancellor since 2005. She chose to step down after winning election four times i.e. 16 years (also the first time a Chancellor will not seek re-election). However, Scholz's SPD defeated her Party's candidate Armin Laschet in Parliamentary elections in September this year. The lower house of Parliament has 735 seats, and Parties must obtain more than 36 (or 37) members to enter into a coalition. Elections Results: CDU/CSU - 151/45 = 196 SPD = 206 Greens = 118 FDP = 92 AfD = 83 The left ( Die Linke) = 39 To become Chancellor, the candidate must obtain votes from more than half the members of Parliament plus one. (Chancellor majority). Scholz is likely to be sworn-in on Dec 6. 12 Likes 1 Share |

I don't understand How do they do these selections? When Theresa May stepped down, Boris Johnson was appointed. Similar case here. If we had similar issues here, how would they appoint the next person after Buhari? 2 Likes |

Paxxcarl: Biden is revamping infrastructures like fast speed internet in certain areas in America that does not have high speed internet. Infrastructural improvement and renewal is a must even in China, Russia, UK and Germany. They may not make it number 1, but they must fix roads, bridges, railways, electricity etc 6 Likes 1 Share |

tarantino1:Each Party has a leader, the Party with the highest Parliamentary seats is automatically the leader. However, to be Chancellor in Germany....You will have to enter a Coalition to ensure you have more than half the number of electors in Parliament. These parties have their differing ideologies and positions are shared between them. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

tarantino1:the party that wins majority in parliament forms the government, usually the head of that party becomes chancellor, in the case where there is no clear leader, a colaition of the parties that won majority will form the government. |
