Franco era. After the war, General Franco took power and established a dictatorship that lasted more than 30 years, as Francoism.

2
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:39,130
As a reason of stabilization, a dictatorship, the constitution was avoided.

3
00:00:40,170 --> 00:00:43,490
A restriction of individual liberties took place.

4
00:00:43,950 --> 00:00:46,229
Alpo was concentrated in Franco.

5
00:00:46,729 --> 00:00:54,070
He was head of state and government and commander-in-chief of the military.

6
00:00:55,770 --> 00:01:01,130
There was just one political party and one labor union.

7
00:01:01,130 --> 00:01:03,530
both controlled by the government.

8
00:01:04,590 --> 00:01:07,390
The statutes of autonomy were revoked.

00:01:07,750 --> 00:01:10,409
Spanish was the only official language.

00:01:11,129 --> 00:01:13,890
Censorship was put into place.

00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,140
The first years of the dictatorship were difficult.

12
00:01:26,159 --> 00:01:30,500
People who had support the Republic faced hard repression.

13
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:37,099
Many were arrested or killed and others went into exile.

14
00:01:37,099 --> 00:01:45,219
During these years, Spain became internationally isolated.

15
00:01:45,219 --> 00:01:53,219
As a result of the Spanish dictatorship, many countries broke off diplomatic and commercial relations with Spain.

16
00:01:53,219 --> 00:02:02,219
This isolation and the destruction of infrastructure and industries during the war led to an economic crisis.

17
00:02:02,219 --> 00:02:09,219
As a result, the population was impoverished and often didn't have access to food and other basic products.
