Eladio Victoria y Victoria (July 30, 1864 in Baní – July 27, 1939 in Santiago de los Caballeros) was a Dominican Republic politician. He served as the 32nd president of the Dominican Republic from December 5, 1911, until November 30, 1912. Direct US intervention forced him to resign.[1]

His entire presidency coincided with the Dominican Civil War of 1911–1912. He was succeeded in the presidency by his co-brother-in-law Monsignor Adolfo Alejandro Nouel.[2]

Victoria was 3⁄4 French. He was great-granduncle of Arístides and Alexis Victoria Yeb.
