Andalusian Unity (Spanish: Unidad Andaluza, UA) was a political party launched in December 1980 by former minister Manuel Clavero as a split from the Union of the Democratic Centre (UCD) over disagreement with UCD's autonomic policy on the 1980 Andalusian autonomy initiative referendum.^[1][2] The party was officially registered on 22 January 1981.^[3][4] Clavero was the party's president, whereas Manuel Otero Luna was elected as secretary general.^[5][6][7]

An electoral coalition with the conservative People's Alliance (AP) was considered ahead of the 1982 Andalusian regional election,^[8] but in the end it was rejected and the party chose not to contest the election out of a lack of campaign funding.^[9][10] It also unsuccessfully probed a coalition with Adolfo Suárez's Democratic and Social Centre (CDS) ahead of the 1982 Spanish general election.^[11] In the end, the party was dissolved on 27 November 1982 over a lack of political and economical viability.^[12][13]
