This is a summary of the video transcript:
The video narrates the causes and events of the Spanish Civil War, which broke out in 1936 when a military uprising led by General Franco rebelled against the republican government of the Popular Front. The war lasted for three years and was marked by political and social divisions, foreign intervention, violence and repression on both sides. The war ended with the victory of Franco's forces and the establishment of a dictatorship that lasted until 1975.
1. The Spanish Civil War started on July 17, 1936, when the army of Africa revolted against the government of the Popular Front, placing itself under the orders of General Franco.
2. On the 18th, several garrisons in the peninsula joined the uprising.
3. General Franco, who was in Las Palmas at the time, was woken up at four in the morning and informed that the garrisons of Ceuta, Melilla, and Tetuán had successfully revolted.
4. In the morning, Franco embarked his wife and daughter on a liner bound for France, and he, at two in the afternoon, boarded the "Dragón Rapide", a plane that would take him to the Spanish area of the protectorate of Morocco.
5. The civil war was a result of the rise against the Government due to social, economic, and political reasons.
6. In 1923, Miguel Primo de Rivera, with the support of King Alfonso XIII, established a military dictatorship.
7. In 1930, the dictatorship ended, and the country had been socially and economically backward for many years with respect to other countries in its environment.
8. In 1931, municipal elections were called, and more monarchist than republican councilors were elected.
9. The revolutionary committee proclaimed the Republic, known as the Second Republic, in Madrid.
10. The Constitution was approved in December and the first reforms began.
11. The era of Manuel Azaña was beginning, who wanted to accelerate the modernization of the country.
12. The repression was harsh; many prisoners, trials, and death sentences were made.
13. In February 1936, general elections were held, the last of the Second Spanish Republic.
14. The left, in order to win, united in what was called the Popular Front, a coalition of socialists, communists, and anarchists.
15. The positions became very radical, and the left did not know how to contain itself, leading to demonstrations, strikes, and burning of convents and churches.
16. The Spanish Communist Party grew significantly, and José Antonio, the son of Miguel Primo de Rivera, had created a fascist-inspired movement, the Falange.
17. The Falange, merged with Juntas de Ofensiva Nacional Syndicalistas (XONS), grew and right-wing youths began to enlist in their ranks.
18. The Government was not able to bring order, and chaos took over Spain.
19. On July 12, 1936, Falangists killed José del Castillo, a socialist militant, and this event led Francisco Franco to join the coup led by Mola.
20. The military rebellion broke out successfully in Morocco, and the next day it reached the peninsula.
21. The uprising did not succeed either in the capital, Madrid, or in Barcelona, thanks to the decisive intervention of General Aranguren, who remained loyal to the Republic.
22. The war dragged on for three long years and was a fratricidal war, between brothers.
23. The peninsula was divided into two areas: the republican and the national.
24. No democracy helped the Republic; in fact, England and France promoted a "Non-Intervention" agreement, to which many countries joined.
25. Spain became the battleground of the antagonistic totalitarian forces in Europe: Nazism and Fascism against Communism.
26. The USSR firmly supported the republicans, with the delivery of war material and food in exchange for the gold of the Bank of Spain, the famous "Moscow Gold, collected by Stalin.
27. To fight against the rebel army the republican government, presided over from 19 July by Giral, armed the civilians at the beginning of the war, which gave rise to the famous "Militias".
28. The Battle of Madrid began, with the Republicans having military units made up of foreign military personnel from more than 50 countries, the so-called "International Brigades".
29. At the beginning of 1937, the nationals advanced and conquered Malaga.
