The Spanish Civil War, fought from 1936 to 1939, was a complex conflict between the Republicans and Nationalists, both vying for control over Spain’s government and its future. The Republicans supported the left-leaning Popular Front government of the Second Spanish Republic and consisted of various socialist, communist, separatist, anarchist, and republican parties. On the other hand, the Nationalists were an alliance of Falangists, monarchists, conservatives, and traditionalists led by General Francisco Franco.

This war had many dimensions and was viewed as a struggle between class, religion, dictatorship, and democracy, revolution, and counterrevolution, and between fascism and communism. In early 1939, the Nationalists emerged as the victors and ruled Spain until Franco’s death in November 1975.

The Spanish Civil War was infamous for the passion and political division it inspired, as well as the many atrocities committed on both sides. The Nationalists conducted organized purges to consolidate their future regime in the territories they captured. Meanwhile, mass executions also took place in areas controlled by the Republicans, with the participation of local authorities varying from location to location.
