in Italy there's a proportional electoral system (there was a majority one, but has been changed very recently), it's very similar but has some differences between the two chambers (one has a prize for the coalition who wins the elections, the other no) ; the whole system is very complicated and has been changed from the actual government because of theyr fear to lose elections
