It has been 85 years since the end of the Spanish Civil War and the beginning of the Francoist dictatorship. The war between the Republicans and the Nationalists took place between the year 1936 and 1939 and marked a dark period in the history of Spain. And even today, Spanish society continues to suffer the consequences of this conflict.
Despite the obvious importance of this time period, there are no national museums to remember the war. On this broadcast we learn about the first and only museum about the Spanish Civil War, which is not based in Spain, but in Canada. The Virtual Museum of the Spanish Civil War has recently added new exhibits, and we spoke with the museum's co-founder, Antonio Cazorla, professor of Contemporary History in the Trent University of Canada .
