How this page is made
Past governments show the Council of Ministers (prime minister and ministers) with each person’s dates, taken from the English Wikipedia tables, which cite the historical archive of the government portal. Ministry names are translated. Secretaries of state and news only appear for the government in office. Photos only appear when a portrait has a confirmed licence; everyone else is shown with initials.
Where the career paths come from
Later offices come from Wikidata (properties «position held», P39, and «employer», P108), only lines with a start date. Ministerial posts come from the government tables, not from Wikidata. For members of parliament, the dates are those of the legislature they were elected to. Many lines on Wikidata have no reference of their own; when they do, it is linked. The most recent offices of ministers from 2015 onwards were checked by hand against dated sources (Parliament, European Parliament, RTP, Observador, ECO). Veramundi adds no labels or judgements: it shows the offices and the dates, and readers draw their own conclusions. Data collected on 25 October 2026; corrections are welcome at info@veramundi.com.
