Respuesta :

In the Spanish war the republicans represented the democratically elected government but after the elections the government shifted to the communist views 

The correct option is: "democratically elected government."

The Spanish civil war or war of Spain, also called by the Spaniards as Civil War par excellence, was a warlike conflict - that later would also repel in an economic crisis - that was triggered in Spain after the partial failure of the coup d'etat of the 17 and 18 of July of 1936 carried out by a part of the Army against the Government of the Second Republic. After the blockade of the Strait and the subsequent airlift, thanks to the rapid collaboration of Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy, the rebellious troops moved to mainland Spain in the last weeks of July, a civil war that ended on the 1st of July April 1939 with the last part of war signed by Francisco Franco, declaring his victory and establishing a dictatorship that would last until his death on November 20, 1975.
