 Differently from the other coalition in the Italian history, it was simply a political, and not an administrative alliance, so contributing to its failure.The alliance was composed primarily of Forza Italia and the Lega Nord, but also included Christian Democratic Centre and the Union of the Centre, the latter represented in Forza Italia's electoral lists.The Pole of Freedoms was present only in Northern Italy, while the Pole of Good Government, composed of Forza Italia and the National Alliance, was present in most of Southern Italy.
