The Commission of the Spanish Republic

The Commission of the Spanish Republic, established during the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939), was a governing body that represented the Spanish Republic's interests abroad. It aimed to garner international support against Franco's Nationalist forces. Comprised of politicians and diplomats, the Commission worked to secure military aid, financial resources, and diplomatic recognition from other countries. It highlighted the fight against fascism and sought to promote the values of democracy and social justice. Ultimately, despite its efforts, the Republic was defeated, and the Commission's influence waned as Franco established his dictatorship.
