The Rally of the Democratic Centre (French reformed: Rassemblement d'centre démocratique), abbreviated RDC (RCD), is a Gylian political party, part of the Centre Group bloc.
History
The Rally of the Democratic Centre was founded in 1958, to reunite centrist formations of the Free Territories.
It nearly fell short of the electoral threshold in the 1958 federal election, but entered the Popular Assembly after it was revised. It formed an alignment with the Moderate Centrist Party, which became the Centre Group.
The RDC was affected by the "constructive"–"recalcitrant" battle within Gylian conservatism. Many "constructives" joined it during the 1960s, causing it to lean centre-right. The establishment of the National Bloc in 1969 drew away most of the "constructives", allowing the RDC to reposition itself in the centre.
During the wretched decade, it grew close to the NB in opposition to the Aén Ďanez government. It joined Filomena Pinheiro's grand coalition cabinet after the Ossorian war crisis of 1986, its first participation in a federal government.
During the 1990s, the RDC took an ambiguous stance towards Mathilde Vieira's "plural coalition" — formally outside it, but providing support on occasion.
It joined the Lena Haidynraix government after the 2020 federal election.
Ideology
The RDC represents the radical centrist formation of the CG, whose platform emphasises participatory democracy and maintenance of a welfare state.
Symbols
The RDC uses a shade of orange as its official colour.
