The British Virgin Islands has a two-party system, which means that there are two dominant political parties, creating difficulty for anybody to achieve electoral success under the banner of any other party.
There are four main parties active at present in the Territory, and between them they hold all of the seats in the legislature.
Several parties have previously held seats in the British Virgin Islands legislature but are no longer current or active.
A number of political parties have been formed but failed to win any seats.
