  Catalan nationalism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
During the first part of the 20th century, the main nationalist party was the right-wing Lliga Regionalista, headed by Francesc Cambó.
In 1931, the left-wing Esquerra Republicana de Catalunya party won the elections in Catalonia, advocating for a Catalan republic federated with Spain.
Under pressure of the Spanish government, the leader of ERC, Francesc Macià i Llussà, accepted instead an autonomous Catalan government, which was called Generalitat de Catalunya.

In opposition to this measure, the Lliga was joined by some Catalan Republicans and by Catalan Carlists in a regional electoral alliance, Catalan Solidarity, that won forty-one of the forty-four Catalan Cortes seats in the 1907 elections.
The Lliga's astute political leader, Francesc Cambó, then worked closely with the Maura government of 1907-1909 to try to legislate local government autonomy, and hopefully, a broader regional auton- [606] omy bill for Catalonia.
However, the left wing of the Catalanists walked out on this tacit alliance in 1908 because the Maura government refused to revoke the Law of Jurisdictions "immediately" and because of provisions for corporate suffrage in the local autonomy bill.
