The 8th General Junta was the meeting of the General Junta, the parliament of the Principality of Asturias, with the membership determined by the results of the regional election held on 22 May 2011. The congress met for the first time on 15 June 2011. It is the shortest meeting of the democratic General Junta as it ended after then President of Asturias, Francisco Álvarez-Cascos, called a snap election, being the first non-historic autonomous community (different from Andalusia, Catalonia, the Basque Country or Galicia) to do so.[1]
