List of Finnish Governments

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Finnish governments have been on this list since 1917. Until the 1980s, the government alliances were mostly very unstable and minority governments were regularly formed. In the first 66 years, 63 governments were in office. There have been a total of 76 government cabinets since the declaration of independence in December 1917. In some cases, oversized coalitions have been (and still are) formed.
