Britain's last coalition government in some ways had the simpler task: it just had to fight the Nazis.
The new Liberal Democrat-Conservative government, however, has no such existential threat to concentrate its mind. There also issues Churchill's alliance never threw up, such as whether BBC Question Time's multi-party panels will now include two government representatives.
So, what do you need to know? These are some of the questions asked so far by followers of the GdnPolitics Twitter account.
@markrobertsmith Where are the Lib Dems going to sit during PMQs?
@williamt Wondering if supplementary questions for 2nd largest opposition party still apply at PMQs, given that would now be the DUP....
@LabourLive What happens in the next election campaign? How do coalition partners attack each other?
@MitchellAT Under fixed term plans, can a no confidence vote still happen? And how will reshuffles work? Does DC have full say?
@gramsci99 Do they still have separate conferences? who stands in for DC at PMQs when he's away?
If you have any further questions about the new government add them in the comments and we'll do our best to answer.
