Why is this answer correct?
In a democracy, several parties participate in forming political opinion (Article 21 of the Basic Law) so that the different views of citizens are represented. Multiple parties are not meant to limit bribery, prevent demonstrations or stimulate economic competition.
Several parties = many opinions in parliament.
