Description

An overview of Spain's turbulent history following loss of empire, including the Spanish Civil War and the Franco dictatorship. Most attention is given to the nation's transformation since 1975 (the death of Franco and the return to democracy) and its enthusiastic embrace of Europe. As a peripheral European nation, and one that has been driven by cultural, political and economic conflicts in the recent past, Spain may well constitute a litmus test for the viability of European unity.
