Mathias Kohler

Mathias Kohler (born 31 October 3901) is a Luthori Politician, a former City Councillor in Merenbürg, Darnussia, and the founder and current leader of the The Alternative in Luthori.

Early Life
Kohler was born in Merenbürg, Darnussia, and at Merenburg High School & Sixth Form before attending Imperial University in the same city. He joined Zentrum while attending university and upon completing university he stood as City Council By-election Candidate in April 3923 and won the seat for Zentrum. In the subsequent Council wide elections, held in April 3925, he stepped aside in order to move to Luthori with his fiancée and now wife Ingrid Bondesvik.

Political Career
Kohler's political life started while attending Imperial University where he joined the local Zentrum group and subsequently became a member. He helped in campaigning and fundraising throughout his time at university, and eventually stood in a council by-election in 3923. He won the seat for the party, but just two years later he stood down to move to Luthori.

After moving to Luthori, Kohler's intention was to step back from politics and start up a small breakfast bar in the capital. However Luthori's gradual shift to the right caused him to take action and found The Alternative, although his wife does run a breakfast in the capital.

The party would take up the centre to centre-left ground and promote environmental, minority, and republican issues. A stark contrast to the traditional politics in Luthori, many commentators have pointed out that Kohler and his party make for ideal coalition partners for Choice.
