The first government of Francisco Franco was formed on 31 January 1938 during the Spanish Civil War, shortly after having been proclaimed as Head of State of Spain.[1][2] It succeeded the Technical State Junta in the Nationalist zone—eventually, it would also take over from the Republican National Defence Council at the end of the war—and was the Government of Spain from 31 January 1938 to 9 August 1939,[b] a total of 555 days, or 1 year, 6 months and 9 days.

A war cabinet,[3] it was made up of members from various factions that would go on to form the National Movement: the FET y de las JONS party—the only legal political party in the Nationalist zone after the approval of the Unification Decree in April 1937—and the military, as well as a number of aligned-nonpartisan figures.

Council of Ministers
