Could a handful of idealists really change the course of history? This episode of Double Helix Blueprint of Nations takes you on a gripping journey back to 1936, as we uncover how the Spanish Civil War became a global battleground for ideologies. From the dusty streets of Barcelona, volunteers from 52 nations, driven by ideological zeal and personal circumstance, united to confront the rising tide of fascism. With the Axis powers, Germany and Italy, experimenting with their military might on Spanish soil, the stakes were undeniably high.
