In the 1920s and 1930s, fascism emerged in Europe, characterized by dictatorial power and extreme nationalism. Leaders like Benito Mussolini in Italy and Adolf Hitler in Germany led fascist regimes. During this time, Spain faced its own turmoil, culminating in the Spanish Civil War , where nationalist forces led by Francisco Franco fought against the Spanish Republic. The war was a brutal conflict with deep political and social divisions, and Franco’s victory established a long-lasting fascist dictatorship in Spain.
