A "caudillo" is a Spanish term that historically refers to a military or political leader, often associated with authoritarian rule. The term gained prominence during the 20th century, particularly in Spain and Latin America, where caudillos were known for their charismatic leadership and strongman tactics. They typically emerged in times of political instability, wielding significant personal power and often bypassing democratic processes. The most notable example is Francisco Franco, who ruled Spain as a dictator from 1939 until his death in 1975.
