The Gaullican Section of the Workers' International (Gaullican: Section Gaulloise de l'Internationale Ouvrière, SGIO), is the oldest functioning party in Gaullica. Formed in 1901 as Gaullica's first socialist party, the SGIO was banned from participation in the electoral processes by the Parti Populaire of Rafael Duclerque. Though permitted after the Great War, their affiliation with Kirenia served to their detriment -- and a united front of the SGIO and the PSD soon fell apart. In the recent snap election of August 2019, the SGIO performed marginally worse than normal.
