context_page_description: The Prime Minister is the head of government in Sweden. The office was created in 1876. Louis Gerhard De Geer, the architect behind the new bicameral Riksdag of 1866 that replaced the centuries-old Riksdag of the Estates, became the first officeholder in 1876.
  The current Prime Minister of Sweden is Stefan Löfven, leader of the Swedish Social Democratic Party.
