he Spanish Civil War
On July 18, 1936, from the Canary Islands, Francisco Franco broadcast his manifesto announcing a full military rebellion, and the uprising began on the mainland that same morning. Within 24 hours he was firmly in control of the Spanish army, and he soon advanced toward Madrid, which was held by the republic. As the troops approached the city, seeing Madrid as the symbol of the leftist government about to be toppled, the movement’s leaders decided to choose a commander in chief. Franco was the obvious choice, and he became head of state of the new Nationalist regime on October 1, 1936. But the rebel government did not fully seize the reins of the country immediately, and the Spanish Civil War would last for more than three years.
In April 1937, Franco unified of the Falange Española (Mussolini-inspired Spanish fascists) and the Carlists (another right-wing group) with other small right-wing parties and from them formed the Falange Española Tradicionalista (which became the regime’s official political face), and Franco was appointed the group’s leader. Emulating the tactics of Adolf Hitler in Nazi Germany, oversized posters of Franco were displayed all over Spain, emblazoned with the slogan, "One State! One Country! One Chief! Franco! Franco! Franco!
