To put that in context: that is one party per million residents.

When you put it like that, it doesn't really sound like that many parties...
To me it actually sounds like more. That would mean about 324 parties in the USA.
I like the sound of that.
When that happened, there were fewer residents, so it was more like one party per half million.
Ah, I thought the GP was referring to when the LPF split into individual fractions.
If I count correctly, the 2003-2006 Tweede Kamer had 9 party fractions in it at the start and had 5 split-off groups, so there were 14 fractions in the end. Maybe there were more somewhere in the meantime?

But of course I don't know what xenobioticants was thinking about.
