In the early years of its existed, Gelsord politics has largely been dominated by the interests of rural conservatives and merchants. During the first century of the Republic however, Gelsord grew exponentially and the interests of commercial enterprises and the tourism industry took over. Large corporations were the main players in Gelsord's politics moving forward as they held the largest amounts of capital to lobby the [[General Assembly|General Assembly (GA)]] with. During the lost century however large corporations were heavily downsized and lost their total dominance in Gelsord politics. The formation of the [[Gelsord Business League|Gelsord Business League (GBL)]] was an initiative led by large, medium, and small businesses within Gelsord to ensure economic stability and combine all the businesses capital to lobby and influence the [[General Assembly]] with the Crysler Group as the figurehead of the GBL. In the decades after the quarantine was finally lifted the people and businesses of Gelsord are largely concerned about the economy and desperately want to return their city to its former glory. Liberal or conservative, it doesn't matter to them as long as the economy is righted back on track. A line of GBL backed Crysler CEOs have occupied the constituency seat of Gelsord in the AssemblyGA since the year 596. Currently [[Erich Crysler]] serves as Gelsord's representative in the AssemblyGA.
