A more accurate terminology, rather than "country", would be region (either in the physical or cultural sense). Two regions with significant anarchist or similarly libertarian leanings were the Basque and Catalonian regions. Both were home to people with their own language, distinct history and, therefore, a very independent spirit as a people. It was this attitude that lent itself so well to the radical ideology of anarchism.

IMPUT: As is true the the anarchism was very strong among catalan workers and farmers during the Spanish civil War, it's not true to the Basque country. The basque country was a very conservative and religous society in the time of the spanish civil War. In fact, there was the only place in Spain where the catholic church supported the republican side, or better said, the basque church was against the nationalist because her support to the basque nationalism. The other region of spain where the anarchism was very strong during the war is Andalusia, in the south. In Andalusia there were a big ammount of farmrs without land to work in. They worked in the lands of rich owners, mainly belonging to the aristocracy, and many of them supported the anarchism and the confiscation of lands during the war.

We could say too that maybe there are no direct connection between the "ethnic" differences in Spain and the ideological bias during the Civil War, but these ideological options are more related to socio-economic causes that to cultural or linguistical ones.

I would like to say too that as Catalonia and the Basque Country have a strong cultural identity, their history is not so different of the other spanish regions, or that their histoys are so different as the other spanish regions.
