Cuilin The two sides of the Spanish Civil War are the left side, known as the Republicans, was formed by the Spanish government together with unions, communists, anarchists, workers, and peasants. On the other side were the Nationalists, the rebel part of the army, the bourgeoisie, the landlords, and, generally, the upper classes. 5d

The Spanish Civil War: Reaction, Revolution and Revenge | Paul Preston

I feel like if I were to go back and chose a different path for my life I‘d become a historian. So much of what I read is history or biography, and books like this are so brutal but I feel that the history is so important and I am very attracted to the path of other people‘s memory.
