      The interesting thing is, the US has helped setup several democracies over the years. Not once did they encourage a US style system.

        That’s mainly because the U.S. system is antiquated in all sorts of ways and basically everyone understands that, iirc Ruth Bader Ginsburg specifically said the constitution was outdated and that modern framers of a constitution would be much better off looking at Germany’s and South Africa’s than the United State’s for inspiration.
