  Spanish Civil War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Spanish Civil War (July 1936–April 1939) was a conflict in which the incumbent Second Spanish Republic and political left-wing groups fought against a right-wing nationalist insurrection led by General Francisco Franco, who eventually succeeded in ousting the Republican government and establishing a personal dictatorship.
At the time of the Civil War the PSOE was split between a right wing under Indalecio Prieto and Juan Negrín, and a left wing under Largo Caballero.
In the run-up to the Civil War it was led by Emilio Mola and José Sanjurjo, and latterly Franco.

 Spanish Civil War chronology 1936 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Loyal police troops from the Guardia Civil and Guardia de Asalto hold the cities Tetouan and Larache, but are under heavy attack by the rebels.
The Nationalist insurgents have control of the Spanish zones of Morocco, the Canary Islands, the Balearics (except Minorca), the part of Spain north of the Sierra de Guadarrama and the Río Ebro (except Asturias, Santander, the north of the País Vasco (Basque Country), and Catalonia).
Fighting alongside the Nationalists are the so-called "moros" (Moors), Moroccan volunteers, for whom the civil war was a chance at a sort of revenge for the Spain's colonial occupation of their country.

 Spanish Civil War - Charles' George Orwell Links
The Spanish Civil War was a civil war in Spain between rebels (known as Nacionales), the republican government and its supporters.
Because of this, a protracted civil war ensued.
For the remaining three years of the war, Franco was effective commander of all the Nationalists, and he unassumingly arranged events (including assigning missions to political rivals that would likely get them killed) so that at the end of the war there would be no opposition to his rule.

Anderson also downplays the popularity of the conservative and Catholic parties during the Spanish Republic, claiming that their gains in the 1933 election, for example, were because electoral trends "shifted to the right," rather than as a reaction against the incompetence and corruption of the left-liberal republican governments of 1931-33.
From the beginning of his dictatorship in 1936 to his death in 1975, Franco's chief advisers and ministers were almost all military officers, conservative monarchists, or technocrats.
