      Fun fact: some Spanish Republicans lamented that WWII didn’t start in the earliest months of 1939, because then Francoist Spain would have been considered a belligerent and eventually liberated from totalitarism around 1945. Instead, they got adopted as a little fascist anti-communist lapdog by the Western powers.
