	Siege of Madrid (1936-39) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Madrid was held by forces loyal to the Spanish Republic and was besieged by Spanish Nationalist and allied troops under Francisco Franco.
		Arguably, this tactic of Franco's was counter-productive, as the Republican population in Madrid were not cowed into surrender and the aeriel bombardment of civilians (one of the first in the history of warfare) was heavily criticised by foreign journalists, among them Ernest Hemmingway.
		The population of Madrid was subjected to a sporadic artillery and aeriel bombardment and food became short as the winter went on.

	Siege of Madrid (1936-39) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		On November 2, Brunete fell to the nationalists, leaving their troops at the western suburb of Madrid.
		Having failed to take Madrid by assault, Franco ordered the aeriel bombardment of the city's residential areas, with the exception of the upper class Salamanca district (which was assumed to contain many Nationalist supporters) with the intention of terrifying the civilian population into surrender.
		In March, the battle of Guadalajara was fought about 60km to the north west of Madrid, when Republican troops routed an attempt by Italian troops to cross the Jarama, encircle Madrid's defences and launch an assault on the city.

	Nine Articles by Luis Silva - THE BATTLE OF BRUNETE
		Brunete seemed a curious choice for a major offensive for it was of no great military importance, although it did lie at the crossroads of a minor road system on the Castillian plain between the Perales and Guadarrama Rivers.
		Several units were transferred to the Brunete front from the north, including Colonels Camilo Alonso Vega’s and Juan Bautista Sànchez’s crack 4th and 5th Navarrese Brigades, while the tiny Nationalist Air Force and the Condor Legion’s air squadrons, being alerted for a move south.
		Artillery fire was already harassing the first convoys to Brunete, officers were still trying to sort out the chaos of the previous day and they were acutely aware of the presence of the enemy at Llanos Ridge and Quijorna barely 5km (3miles) from their supply line.

	The Bell Tolls at Brunete, Robert Wernick
		The roads are empty leading to Brunete in summertime, no one wants to drive twenty miles from Madrid to visit the featureless sleepy little town baking among brown fields under the merciless sun of the Castillian plateau.
		Republican planes could still barely hold their own in the air over Brunete, but the tide was running the other way, and through the rest of the war Germany superiority in the machines of war grew rapidly and steadily till it broke the back of the Spanish Republic...
		At Brunete, which is twice as big as it was when it was totally destroyed in 1937, it is hard to see the new buildings for the new billboards announcing the construction of new chalets, apartments, duplexes, for yuppies of the bustling prosperous new Madrid where you can only hear of paseos in old movies.

		Though it had Spanish nationalist ideals as the central cause, the war was closely watched around the world mainly as the first major military contest between left-wing forces and the increasingly powerful and heavily armed Fascists.
		During this time, there were general strikes in Valencia and Zaragoza, street conflicts in Madrid and Barcelona, and a miners' uprising in Asturias, which was put down forcefully by the troops commanded by General López Ochoa and the Legionnaires commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Juan Yagüe, under the direction of Minister of War Diego Hidalgo.
