Notes

edit
  1. ^ a b Does not include the Prime Minister.
  2. ^ Sources differ on the numbering, depending on whether they consider every cabinet change or just major reshuffles as giving way to a different government. In this sense, the 1962–1965 period is regarded as both the sixth and the eleventh government under Franco, depending on the source.[1][2]
