Álvaro de Figueroa, 1st Count of Romanones

Don Álvaro de Figueroa y Torres-Sotomayor, 1st Count of Romanones, Grandee of Spain (Madrid, 9 August 1863 – 11 October 1950, Madrid) was a Spanish politician. He was the Prime Minister of Spain three times between 1912 and 1918, president of the Senate and seventeen times minister. He belonged to the Liberal Party of Sagasta and Canalejas.
==Biography==
He was the second son of Ignacio de Figueroa Mendieta and Ana de Torres Romo, marquises of Villamejor, rich owners of land and mines. He graduated in law from the ''Universidad Central de Madrid'' in 1884 and obtained a doctorate from the university of Bologna but he never practiced law and always was involved in politics and business.
He started his political career with the support of his father in law who was an influential politician and he was representative for Guadalajara without interruption from 1886 to 1936. He was elected councilmember to Madrid City Hall and in 1894 Mayor of Madrid. His political career was always linked to the Liberal party of Sagasta.
He was Minister of Public Instruction and the Arts (1901-1902) in the government of Sagasta during which he incorporated teachers' salaries in the nation's budget. In 1903 he founded a political newspaper, ''Diario Universal''.
In the Liberal governments of 1905-1906 he was Minister of Development (''Fomento'' which included agriculture, industry, commerce and public works), Justice and Interior. He contributed to the rise of José Canalejas to the top of the Liberal Party and, as a reward, he was appointed minister of Public Instruction in 1909 and later propmoted to the presidency of the House of Representatives (''Congreso de los Diputados'') in 1912.
After the assassination of Canalejas he became one of the prominent figures in the Liberal Party and he was appointed prime minister (1912-1913) during which time he negotiated with France a treaty concerning Morocco
During the First World War he held a pro-French stance which put him in conflict with the official declaration of neutrality of the government of Eduardo Dato and with the pro-German stance of the conservatives. When he again became prime minister (1915-1917) he changed Spain's foreign policy closer to the allies and confronting Germany over an incident where Spanish ships had been torpedoed by German submarines. Incapable of resolving Spain's social problems and attacked by the conservative press which was favorable to Germany, he finally resigned.
Shortly after he participated in the coalition government of Antonio Maura as Minister of Instruction and of Justice and in the government of Manuel García Prieto as Minister of State (1918), and he presided a brief-lived government in December 1918 which was toppled by the autonomist agitation in Catalonia and by the labor conflicts. He was replaced in April 1919 after issuing the so-called ''Eight Hour Workday Decree''.
He was Minister of Justice (1922-1928) in the liberal government of García Prieto and became president of the Senate in 1923 where he was when the military coup of General Primo de Rivera on 13 September 1923.
During Primo de Rivera's dictatorship he stayed out of politics although he participated in the conspiracy known as the ''Sanjuanada'' for which he was fined.
After the fall of Primo de Rivera's dictatorship in 1930 he became Minister of State in the government of Juan Bautista Aznar Cabañas but the elections in 1931 showed that the monarchy as a political option was exhausted and that the people were favorable to a republican form of government so he counseled the king Alfonso XIII to leave Spain. Romanones talked personally with Niceto Alcalá Zamora and his revolutionary committee and agreed to the peaceful transfer of power to the Provisional Republican Government without military intervention in exchange of the guarantee for the life of the royal family. During the Second Republic ha remained deputy representative for Guadalajara but his political weight was insignificant except to defend the honor of the departed king and his own legacy.
He did not participate in the military revolt of 1936 and the outbreak of the civil war found him in San Sebastian in charge of his own business from where he crossed over to France with the help of the French ambassador. He returned to the nationalist zone in 1937 but he never again participated in politics. After the war he wrote his memoirs and was president of the ''Real Academis de Bellas Artes de San Fernando'' and member of the academies of History and Jurisprudence.
He married Casilda Alonso-Martínez Martín, daughter of Manuel Alonso Martínez liberal politician, friend of Sagasta, and owner of a renowned legal firm in Madrid. They had three sons, one of which was killed in the war in Africa in 1920, and one daughter. His grandson, Carlos Figueroa, competed for Spain at the 1956 Summer Olympics.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Carlos Figueroa Olympic Results )
