text: # List of heads of government of Spain
  
  This is a list of heads of government of Spain.
  
  ## Before 1823
  
  There is no specific date when the office of prime minister first appeared as the role was not created, but rather evolved over a period of time through merger of duties. The government was led by a Valido, a favourite of the King or the ruling Regent. Since 1621, there was also a Secretary of the Universal Bureau (Secretario de Estado y del Despacho Universal), but this seems to have been rather a subordinate position .
