During the first and second world wars, Spain remained neutral and largely unscathed by the fighting. But between the wars, Spain was embroiled in an internal conflict that quickly drew in foreign powers from the Soviet Union, the fascist world, and the democratic capitalist nations of the West. This Spanish Civil War raged for three years and destroyed much of the country’s infrastructure, and revealed to everyone the strategies and tactics that made and broke roughly equally matched forces fighting over deep-seated ideological issues. Karl Dahl, joining us to discuss what happened and how the rightist forces under Francisco Franco managed to pull off a victory by carefully orchestrating different factions and solidifying that victory after the war, applies those lessons to modern day America.
