1936 and the start of The Spanish Civil War
The Spanish Civil War broke out on this day in 1936 with a revolt by right-wing Spanish military officers in Spanish Morocco that spread to mainland Spain. It lasted until 1939. General Franco stayed in power until his death in 1975.
It was a conflict that would have ramifications in Europe and specially in Latin America. Thousands of children were sent to Latin America and many never saw their parents again. We saw horrific brutality from both sides in that conflict.
Barry Jacobsen discussed the Spanish Civil War during our recent episode about World War II. Click here to listen to the show!
