This is a list of all
Norwegian Prime Ministers (and Foremen of
Government before that title was used). The letters in (brackets) behind the names signify which party the government was assembled from.
Note that the infamous Vidkun Quisling government is not mentioned in the list, because it was not a legal government (the exiled King Haakon VII vetoed it).
See also Norwegian Kings.
