The González I Government was formed on 3 December 1982 following Felipe González's election as Prime Minister of Spain by the Congress of Deputies on 1 December and his swearing-in on 2 December, as a result of the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) emerging as the largest parliamentary force at the 1982 Spanish general election. González's first cabinet was composed mainly by members of the PSOE and its sister party, the Socialists' Party of Catalonia (PSC), as well as a number of independents.[1][2][3] It succeeded the Calvo-Sotelo government and was the Government of Spain from 3 December 1982 to 26 July 1986, a total of 1,331 days, or 3 years, 7 months and 23 days.

The government was automatically dismissed on 23 June 1986 as a consequence of the 1986 general election, but remained in acting capacity until the next government was sworn in.[4][5][6]
