It is all the same, under different names. Plus even in countries with multiple parties, it is usually only two parties that have a chance, but again, they usually (or always) have a similar (or the same) goals.

Not really, in Holland we usually have a coalition of at least 3 parties in government. No one party is ever big enough to have a majority. And yes they are quite different. This makes coalitions difficult to form and very unstable but I still far prefer it over a two-party system.
