The Spanish Revolution of 1936 was a social revolution, not a military one, so while incidental people may have been killed, the numbers are too small to have been collected and recorded. The Spanish Revolution made the Second Republic of Spain more anarcho-libertarian or anarcho-syndicalist. However, the Spanish Revolution occurred contemporaneously with the Spanish Civil War, which was a war between the Second Republic of Spain and the Nationalists (who would eventually install the Spanish State).

Puerto Rico remained under Spanish control until it was ceded to the United States in 1898 following the Spanish-American War.
