Officially known as the Primera División, it features 20 teams competing annually for the championship title. Established in 1929, La Liga is one of the most prestigious and widely followed football leagues in the world. It operates on a system of promotion and relegation with the Segunda División. The league is known for its competitive nature and has been home to some of the greatest football clubs, including FC Barcelona and Real Madrid, which have historically dominated the tournament.
