The Villaverdists (Spanish; Castilian: Villaverdistas), also known as the Villaverdist Conservatives (Spanish; Castilian: Conservadores Villaverdistas, V), were a regenerationist political faction within the Liberal Conservative Party (PLC), led by Prime Minister of Spain Raimundo Fernández-Villaverde. The faction contested the September 1905 general election on its own, despite the death of Fernández-Villaverde in July. It disbanded shortly thereafter.[1]
