The fourth[b] government of Francisco Franco was formed on 19 July 1951.[3] It succeeded the third Franco government and was the Government of Spain from 19 July 1951 to 25 February 1957, a total of 2,048 days, or 5 years, 7 months and 6 days.
Franco's fourth cabinet was made up of members from the different factions or "families" within the National Movement: mainly the FET y de las JONS party—the only legal political party during the Francoist regime—the military, the National Catholic Association of Propagandists (ACNP) and a number of aligned-nonpartisan figures from the civil service. The new government saw the establishment of the Ministry of Information and Tourism.[4]
