Spanish Demonstrate to Restore Republic

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

Thousands of Spanish people joined a mass demonstration on 14 April calling for their country to become a republic again.

Spain was last proclaimed a republic in 1931. But when dictator Franco gave up power as head of state in 1975 he transferred it to the current “king” of Spain.

The so called “royal” family has been involved in multiple scandals recently, which has encouraged support for the ending of the feudal institution.
