We review nonlinear gauge theory and its application to two-dimensional gravity. We construct a gauge theory based on nonlinear Lie algebras, which is an extension of the usual gauge theory based on Lie algebras. It is a new approach to generalization of the gauge theory. The two-dimensional gravity is derived from nonlinear Poincar{\' e} algebra, which is the new Yang-Mills like formulation of the gravitational theory. As typical examples, we investigate $R^2$ gravity with dynamical torsion and generic form of 'dilaton' gravity. The supersymmetric extension of this theory is also discussed.
