The Spanish Civil War
Our series on the Spanish Ciivil War looks at the war that tore Spain and Europe apart. It considers the events that led to Spain's Great War, and how the Great Powers of Europe played such a major role in it. The Spanish Civil War was so much more than just a domestic conflict. It involved battles between Communism and Fascism, Germany and the USSR. In short, it is of vital importance in understanding not just Spanish history, but also World War 2.
