History of the Spanish Civil War

well, a Chico's.

Everyone's doing well in our third week of online.

I'm clearly struggling a little bit soul to shine you

years. What's reflecting off my glasses?

I'm spare with me.

I'm gonna speak in English today because history is tough.

I don't want to speak insanity, you like.

Okay, so today we're going to go with the history

of Spain.

This is kind of to give you a context for

the book that we're gonna be starting next week.

Um, I'll kind of show you what I mean by

that when I get to the slide that this is

kind of more sudden, but we're gonna do a deeper

history, senora address.

He kind of gave me some sides to work off

of, but of course, had a re kind of vamp

it for online learning.

So I will start with this.

Just bear with me again.

I'm not a huge mystery person, but I will do

my best to kind of give you guys a contact

for you.

Alright, Spain today I also probably be talking a lot

about myself.

I'm not gonna lie.

Well, Spain, I've lived there and I studied there.

So, um, I have a lot of pictures that I

added to the slides myself.

For example, I lived in Spain last year.

So this is Spain today, the capital's Madrid.

Let's see Gran via right there, the main road, the

main street in Madrid.

And there's 17 regions off the country's.

That's what it looks like today.

Where do you go back a long time ago?

Um, make sure you're filling out your worksheet as I

talk. All of the vocab words should be at the

top folded and then the definitions air right below.

So this is the Iberian Peninsula.

The Iberian Peninsula is what modern day Spain and Portugal

are, Um, so you can kind of see that in

the picture there.

There's no border between Portugal and Spain.

It was all one, so there's a lot of other

cultures and languages on the Iberian peninsula.

But, um, I have a lot of influence on what

Spain is today.

And 11 or four bc.

That's when the Phoenicians arrived, and they kind of say,

camping Cadiz, which is in southern Spain, and they introduced

iron writing systems and the potter's wheel.

So we have a lot of different mixes of cultures

and people in number Union Peninsula.

All right, And then we have Roman Hispaniola.

So this is a time period where Roman armies invaded

Diab Erion Peninsula and they conquered the Phoenicians and the

other groups of people that were there.

They divided it into two provinces.

There was constant fighting because of the resistance.

The people that are already there.

Um but they ended up winning.

They ended up taking control of the peninsula, and they

really utilize the land.

And the resource is that Spain, the Iberian Peninsula.

Had they brought a lot of culture and infrastructure to

Spain, like irrigation systems, aqueducts, bridges, roads, religion, language pictures

shown to my right.

Are the aqueducts in Segovia there really crazy?

Beautiful. That's right.

Outside of Madrid, they're still standing.

And then the middle picture is Roland up?

Um, that's a bridge just kind of built into the

cliffs. It's crazy there.

I'm actually is living into the And I told my

host family, like my favorite city in Spain, it's Rhonda.

And they could understand me because of my horrible acts.

And I can't tell my are so fun.

Fact about Rhonda.

Um, yeah, well, you confined bridges and aqueducts like this

all over the country, All right, And then we come

to Gothic Hispaniola.

That's kind of like the term for Germanic.

So in four or five, we have Germanic tribes that

are coming to the Iberian Peninsula.

They cross the Rhine River and entered Spain.

Um, it took control the Iberian Peninsula because of the

decline of the Roman Empire's.

Now we enter a period of about 300 years for

the Germanic tribes are taking over the Iberian Peninsula and

Spain. That's all I know about it.

Okay, this is actually my favorite part of San Ishi

Sturgis because of what it's done to southern Spain.

So this period is in 7 11 The Muslims arrived,

the moors, and they invaded and conquered the Iberian Peninsula.

Um, so Spain's he's the influence of the Moors and

Islam across the southern part of the country.

That kind of came from Africa.

Um, so you see, like the Southern parts called and

Lucia's well, that's like the region of Spain in the

south. It comes from the word all on the loose,

which you can see in the top of the vocab

list there.

And so we have this crazy architecture that comes to

Spain. You can kind of see in these pictures.

So the bottom right picture of the cathedral is on

the cathedral of Sylvia, and then the tall part is

called the Kuroda.

We can actually walk up that, and it's only made

for horses.

So it's just like ramps up and down the hero.

You can't take an elevator and you can't take stairs,

and it takes forever to get to the top.

But it's the best view in Serbia for sure.

I'm the middle picture that's in, um, quarterback.

I believe it's portable parties.

Yes, Cordoba, that's you could just see like a Muslim

and Islamic influence in the architecture and then probably the

most beautiful in the left hand quarter.

It's in Granada that the alarm brah, um, it's a

palace, and it's it's very, very beautiful.

You apparitions to go.

I highly recommend it within the recon key stock Cristiana

in, um 14 90 to the Kingdom of Granada Falls.

So that's a bottom left that that city fell to

King Ferdinand and Queen Isabel.

Um, that's a vocab word for you.

For an answer, I would just put like They're the

first Christian king and queen.

And they, um, kind of are the reason that we

had a monarch.

He began in Spain.

So I'll send you guys a definition for that one,

since it's not on here.

And I'm sorry that this one is kind of hard

treat. I hope you guys can still see that.

Yes, sir.

Than the Moors loser Foothold in Spain.

And then the recon key.

So is this long period of trying to convert everyone

to Christianity?

There was a lot of war.

There's a lot of battle.

There was a lot of kind of brutal ways in

order to make someone convert.

And even if it did convert, they were still kind

of look, that is not a true Christians there, so

persecuted for their belief systems.

Um, yeah, that was kind of the uniting of two

kingdoms between, um but Fernando and Isabel made.

And so Spain is our monarchy, and we really want

Christianity, the modern inquisition.

So this is like continuing the idea that we need

Christianity throughout Spain.

This is between 40 92 15.

16 um, have a newly unified Spanish kingdom that united

the North and the south.

We have the King Ferdinand and Queen is about, and

you were forcing conversions.

The Inquisition was all over Europe.

But in Spain, you're really focusing on converting everyone to

Christianity and persecuting those who do not believe you drown.

The next slide is the Imperial Spain.

So this is the time between 49 2 in 18

98 and you can kind of tell by the year

4 to 92 what this is gonna be about.

Um this is like Christopher Calm is going to explore

the new world conquering parts of South America and Mexico

and even the United States.

So Spain is really expanding their reach across the world

and of control.

You can see this from a lot of different countries,

but ST Spain really had a huge, um, you know,

you had a huge impact on the entire world is,

you know, except America.

They still speak Spanish in a lot of parts of

South America today.

So that was Christopher Columbus was expansionism.

And that's fine in the New World.

And that's what Imperial Spain kind of means.

Well, then we have the Hapsburg goes.

I don't know if I'm saying that right?

I'm not gonna lie.

This is the time period between 15.

16 and 1700.

We have a new royal family that's in Spain.

Um, we have Charles the first.

It's picture of trials of first and he took over

the Spanish Kingdom.

He was also the ruler of another lines and use

a hair air to, um some parts of Austria and

Germany. That's when he finally arrives in Spain to kind

of take over his throne.

He's not very well liked.

Doesn't even speak Spanish.

So the Spanish people did not really like him.

Eventually he was accepted kinds of what he was doing

for the church.

He was gonna finally accepted into Spain on then there

was about five kings from this royal house.

They served Spain for a long time.

All right, L Seigel today or oh, that means the

Golden Age.

So kind of what that sounds like to discipline, period

of wealth and prosperity.

We see a lot of Spanish architecture and art, and

theatre and literature come alive during this period.

So I'm sure you guys have all heard of Don

Quixote. I don't know if you had to read it

yet. Um, I think I did with Mr.

It was classic at, um, Holy Family.

But so that's when, uh, what's his name?

Auschwitz Seem I don't remember Cervantes.

That's when Cervantes Don Quixote We have L s Korea

was like a palace, right?

The left hand side of the screen that that image

and then the guy The portrait of the Geisel is

Alaska is he's huge artists of the time.

So yeah, the Golden Age is just a ton of

prosperity and money, and you see a lot of beautiful

architecture and literature come alive.

Then we have the more bones.

This was 1718 08 is a new world family on.

They had a lot of influence from Spain era from

France because of the relationship between Charles the first and

France. And so when he died, they kind of came

over and started taking control of the Royal House in

Spain. Um, and then during this time, we see a

lot of some South American countries gain their independence was

kind of like a French influence.

They're letting people find their independence.

That's kind of what I have about the bar bones.

and I'm not very important for this novel.

And we have 1/19 century and really sorry guys about

these words.

I hope you consider it done.

I'll send out the power point without my face on

and to help you guys out with.

Well, cowards.

Okay, The 19th century is a huge period of instability.

Um, Napoleon's brother, who is this huge?

Uh, hey, he ran a huge empire across Europe.

His brother comes in, he's not even Spanish.

And he's the king.

We have the first Republic, Um, which is written down

here is a vocab word on.

There's just they try to go to democracy instead of

a monarchy.

And the in only 11 months have, like, four different

presidents. It's not really working.

Um, the Treaty of Paris ended Spain's imperialism across the

world. We see, like the Philippines, and prettier we go

in Cuba, they all gain their independence.

Um, in the Treaty of Paris, um, and then we

have a lot of wars.

So we have the car list wars.

He, um, the brother of Napoleon.

His daughter ended up having to take over the throne,

and she's only three years old, and so The uncle

of this young girl decided that he didn't want to

support that.

So he kind of led a revolution.

And we had three car list wars.

Um, so have a lot of instability in Spain during

this time period.

They're not really quite sure what the government is supposed

to be.

Is those a monarchy or democracy supposed be in charge?

Um, so that's kind of the story of this century.

And then we have the second Republic in the Civil

War. Um, we're starting to get closer to, like when

your book that you're gonna read is being set.

Um, so the second Republic is a time period where

Spain, besides that they're a democracy.

It began in 1931 and ended in 1939.

Um, France kind of came in with the fascists and

one's the civil war.

Um, si eso the period of democracy.

We see a lot of freedom of speech.

Woman have the right to vote.

They tried to have a lot of reformer than when

they started to kind of try to implement these reforms.

That's no way see some conflict.

There's violence between the liberal side and the conservative side,

and then we seek strikes.

Just a lot of instability.

Um, next light is yes.

And this is the civil war.

So this is where your book is being set?

Um, the It's like a love story between a woman

and a man in there on opposite sides.

You see, the Civil War we had the Republicans, which

are the loyalists.

And then we had the nationalists who are the rebels.

Eso like we have one character on each side of

this, and they're kind of tryingto make their love story

work in a time period where that's probably not okay.

Um, so the Republicans, they're part of the Spanish government.

They think the church is the enemy.

It's like, um, it's threatening their rights as human beings.

And, you know, they want to own their own land.

They want autonomy of the region's.

You can see that all here on the vocab on

and then the nationalists, other rebels.

So this is about Franco.

So, like the work for you?

Did you learn that?

Used a nationalist?

He's on the right side.

He's not like crutch like the right, um, he thinks

that the church protects manage values It's very traditional stability.

They want all these things.

So he leave the robe over revolt against the Spanish

government, and we see this break out of a civil

war. Um, and then we learn about Franco's dictatorship.

So as you read previously, he was a dictator from

1939 to 1975 and during this time period, he really

kind of cracked down on people that wore Republicans during

the Civil War.

They were the ones on the left side, so he

kills a lot of them.

It's very brutal.

It's time, period of, um, kind of instability.

Kind of people really scared because he was really cracking

down on the side that was opposing him during the

war. So people couldn't do a lot of things during

this time.

And then we have, ah, modern Spain and the constitutional

monarchy. So once Franco died, he, um, wanted harm Carlos

to take this place.

Um And so we have a birth of the constitutional

monarchy, which you guys kind of saw in the Frankel

article as well.

Um, there is a king or queen.

There still is in Spain, but they're kind of more

of a figurehead and they work with a prime minister

who has more of control is that's more of the

rules. He is more of a political figure than the
