### History of the Political parties

In 1925 the country was given democratic elections and a new voice in Goverment. Gervachio was known across the island as a capable judge and effective district community leader and was thus very popular as a candidate for the presidency. He created the Unity party which had Liberals , centrist , conservatives all rallied behind and he assembled a supermajority in the senate and dominated election after election. The only opposition to his administration was held by the Marxist party which later split , The Unity party however drifted ever more towards the left causing the Creation of the Popular conservative party in 1938 , The Popular conservative party stunned the world with a shcoking election victory in 1940 and was known as the only organized opposition to the Unity party, The Popular conservatives had a very hard time getting bill passed and laws enforced under agencies and legislatives controlled by the Unity Party. As time passed both parties became ever more polarized and seen as corrupt by a large section of the Populace , Especially in the 20 year period where two presidents who became rivals of life fought against each other for two decades for power. The Colon-Barcelo rivalry was so intense and lasted so long that the people of both parties became very violent against the thought of voting for the opposing candidate. By 1965 the citizens party which was a centrist party centered on returning to the normalcy of scandal less administrations gained alot of traction , The Marcist schism of 1947 split the Communist groups of the island into the Allesian socialist and the Marxist which significantly weakened the left. The Popular conservative party in all administrations had refused to make coalitions withnthe cordonian nationalist party citing extremism but the Unity party has had no trouble embracing marxist parties when politically expedient when forming coalitions.
