here in France we have the center right party called the UDF, the centrist party (which is more alligned with the left) called the Mouvement Démocrat, as well as the right wing UMP party, the left wing Socialist party, the extreme right and left exist as well. The center is USUALLY alligned with the party in power here in Europe. The center often forms a coalition government with a party that controls say 40 % of the legislature, add in the centers 12% AND BINGO 52% MAJORITY without alienating voters by forming a government with the extreme parties.
