In terms of World War II, the Spanish Civil War was important as a training ground for troops from countries that would soon be fighting each other in the coming war, especially Germany and Italy, on the one hand, and, on the other, the Soviet Union. It was also important in determining which side of the coming war might receive support from Spain. As it turned out, the Nationalist government that won the Civil War provided only minimal support to the Axis Powers.
