The period began in 1939 when General Francisco Franco emerged victorious in the Spanish Civil War. Franco's regime, which lasted until his death in 1975, was known for its authoritarian rule and suppression of political dissent. During this time, Spain experienced social and economic isolation, with limited freedoms and strict censorship. Franco implemented policies that emphasized traditional values and conservative Catholicism, while repressing regional identities and languages. The regime also implemented economic policies that favored autarky, leading to economic stagnation and deprivation for many. #SpainUnderFranco #FrancoEra #AuthoritarianRule #SpanishCivilWar #Censorship
