What are the largest political units in a state called?

If referring to Canada I think you are looking for Parties, as in the Liberal Party, the NDP, and the Conservatives. But there are political action groups with more supporters and much more funding. These include environmental groups whose funding comes mainly from the USA but also world wide. They are very active and they, with other similar groups, may be the largest political units in Canada.

Do you believe that most Americans are in “ideological bubbles” today?

I think that's an oversimplification of American politics. The political "ideologies" that are most prevalent in the United States are Conservatism and Liberalism, which are very similar center-right ideologies. However, US media's propaganda has been extremely effective at merging politics with the culture war, leading to heated political debates over essentially nothing while the two parties work together to undermine our democracy and squash any real leftist, progressive movements.


Why the Political parties appeared in the US shortly after the Constitution was adopted?

The Founding Fathers disliked political parties, which at the time were called Factions. Members of factions were considered to be motivated by ambition and self interest, not the interest of the nation. The arguments between Jefferson and Hamilton so upset George Washington, that he devoted a lot of his Farewell Address to the evils of political factions, warning the nation to avoid forming political parties. Because there were arguments and disagreements over how the new nation should be governed under the Constitution, including economic and political issues, groups developed and those with similar opinions joined together to form the early political parties as views changed about the value of ambition and the motivation of factions. The first organized political party in the United States was made up of the followers of Thomas Jefferson, calling themselves Democratic-Republicans. Those who followed the ideas of Alexander Hamilton organized and called their party, Federalists. The Jeffersonian Democratic-Republicans were so successful, that the Federalist party virtually disappeared after the Election of 1800. When Andrew Jackson decided to run for the office of President, the Jeffersonians had dropped the Republican part of the party name, and Jackson is considered by some to be the founder of the present day Democratic Party. Actually, the Democratic Party traces its roots back to Jefferson.


What is the british tea party?

The Tea Party movement is a grassroots movement of millions of like-minded Americans from all backgrounds and political parties. Tea Party members share similar core principles supporting the United States Constitution as the Founders intended, such as: • Limited federal government • Individual freedoms • Personal responsibility • Free markets • Returning political power to the states and the people As a movement, The Tea Party is not a political party nor is looking to form a third political party any time soon. The Tea Party movement, is instead, about reforming all political parties and government so that the core principles of our Founding Fathers become, once again, the foundation upon which America stands.
