Title
The True Origin of the Spanish Civil War: What Historians Get Wrong
Abstract
The Spanish Civil War didn't start in 1936. It didn't even start in the 1930s. The real origins trace back nearly forty years — to a crumbling empire, a humiliated military, a feudal countryside frozen in the Middle Ages, and a Catholic Church that held more power than most governments. In this documentary, we uncover what historians consistently get wrong about how Spain tore itself apart, and why the conventional story of "left versus right" barely scratches the surface.
