The men's top professional football division of the Spanish football league system is called Campeonato Nacional de Liga de Primera División, also known as Primera División in Spain, La Liga in English-speaking nations, and officially LaLiga Santander for sponsorship reasons, stylized as LaLiga. It is governed by the Liga Nacional de Ftbol Profesional and is participated in by 20 teams. The bottom three teams in each season are demoted to the Segunda División and are replaced by the top two teams and the play-off winner.
La Liga has included 62 different teams since its start. Nine teams have won the championship, with Real Madrid winning the trophy a record 35 times, most recently in the 2021–22 season, and Barcelona winning the inaugural La Liga. Valencia, Atlético Madrid, and Barcelona became the strongest clubs in the 1940s, taking home numerous championships. In the 1950s, Real Madrid and Barcelona were the dominant teams, each taking home four La Liga trophies. Real Madrid dominated La Liga in the 1960s and 1970s, winning fourteen championships against Atlético Madrid's four. Real Madrid dominated La Liga in the 1980s and 1990s, although Athletic Club and Real Sociedad, two Basque clubs, also enjoyed success, each winning two Liga championships. Barcelona has dominated La Liga during the 1990s, winning sixteen championships to date. La Liga has produced winners other than Real Madrid, who have won ten championships, including Atlético Madrid, Valencia, and Deportivo La Coruna.
