The governing powers in the Caribbean are just as varied as the islands themselves, though the major political system is democracy, just with many different party systems throughout the many countries and territories.
There are one-party systems, two-party systems and multi-party systems. The only one-party government can be found in Cuba. The Cuban socialist revolutionary system was adopted from the Russian communist system and designed to to give everyone under it equal access to basic goods and services. Any other party voices that rise up are considered illegal.
Two party systems are found primarily in the English speaking countries. This system can be found in Jamaica and Barbados. Jamaica is a classic representation of the British government.
Multi-party systems with three or more groups can be found in Haiti, Suriname and Guyana. Haiti has approximately twenty-eight parties, Suriname twenty-six and Guyana fifteen.
Several of the island in the Caribbean remain under the control of colonial powers. The French islands are departments of France and elect representatives to the French National Assembly. The British territories have elected governments, as do the Dutch West Indies and the American territories.
