==== Spain ==== {{main|List of dukedoms in Spain}} Spanish infantes and infantas are usually given a royal dukedom upon marriage, excepting the heir apparent who is the [[Prince of Asturias]]. Those titles are nowadays not hereditary but carry a [[Grandee|grandeeship of Spain]]. The current royal duchesses are [[Infanta Margarita, Duchess of Soria]] (although she inherited the title of [[Duke of Hernani|Duchess of Hernani]] from her cousin and is the second holder of the title), and [[Infanta Elena, Duchess of Lugo]]. In Spain all dukes hold the court rank of grandee, which has precedence over all other noble titles. The last non-royal hereditary dukedom created was the title of [[Duke of Suárez]] in favour of former primer minister [[Adolfo Suárez]] in 1981. Since the accession of [[Felipe VI|King Felipe VI]] to the [[Monarchy of Spain|throne]] in 2014, no new noble title has been created.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Confidencial |first=Monarquía |date=4 November 2020 |title=Felipe VI no ha concedido un solo título nobiliario en todo su reinado |url=https://monarquia.elconfidencialdigital.com/articulo/espana/felipe-vi-ha-concedido-solo-titulo-nobiliario-todo-reinado/20201103200251043776.html |access-date=2023-03-23 |website=Monarquía Confidencial |language=es}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Ejerique |first=Raúl Sánchez, Raquel |date=17 September 2016 |title=Felipe VI cierra el grifo de los condes, duques y marqueses |url=https://www.eldiario.es/sociedad/felipe-vi-nobles-primeros-reinado_1_3846049.html |access-date=2023-03-23 |website=elDiario.es |language=es}}</ref>
