Yes, Italy was probably Hitlers strongest Allie (Italy was not as powerful as Japan but they had a closer relationship) Their Alliance failed though when Benito Mussolini (Italian Dictator) was assassinated
Italy gave more support to General Franco in the Spanish Civil War than did Nazi Germany. Fascist Italy sent about 65,000 troops to help Franco. Italy also supplied aircraft and many war supplies that Franco needed. Hitler helped of course but Italy helped out allot more.
Francisco Franco.
No. During the IIWW Spain was under the dictatorship of Francisco Franco, who had took the power in 1939 after the Spanish Civil War. Franco has the help of the Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy in the spanish war and was mostly partisan of the axis victory. Howeverm ther were many spanish fighting in the french resistance, mainly expatriated republicans who had left Spain after de Francoist victory. Their experience in the spanish war was very valuable to the french resistance.
The Italians and Germans supported Francisco Franco during the Spanish Civil War primarily to counter the spread of communism and socialism in Europe. Both countries, under Benito Mussolini and Adolf Hitler, sought to establish fascist regimes and believed that a Franco-led Spain would serve as a strategic ally. Additionally, they aimed to test their military equipment and tactics in a real conflict. This support ultimately contributed to Franco's victory in 1939 and the establishment of a fascist dictatorship in Spain.
He began the Spanish Revolution.AnswerHe led a military coup against the democratically elected government of the Spanish Republic in 1936. The Republic armed the workers, who resisted the fascist takeover. A civil war ensued. Denied the aid of the democratic powers, the Republic sought and obtained limited help from Soviet Russia and also from a large number of foreign volunteers, but Franco's Nationalists received much more extensive foreign aid in the form of the decisive military assistance of Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy. Eventually, the Nationalists won the civil war (1939) and Franco became head of state and dictator. For more details see Hugh Thomas, "The Spanish Civil War"; Paul Preston, "Concise History of the Spanish Civil War". Hitler also helped him come on power... he wouldn't have manged it on his own..

Francisco Franco.
Francisco Franco and his fascist movement won because Germany and Italy were fascists so they had helped him win
To a great extent. The German government under Adolf Hitler provided a great deal of military assistance to Franco in winning the Spanish Civil War. Germany sent troops, equipment, aircraft & pilots to participate in combat. This was called the 'Condor Legion'. In addition, Italy under Mussolini, sent military units to help Franco.

In 1936, General Franco of the Spanish army conspired to overthrow the Republican government of Spain. His rebellion led to the Spanish Civil War, which lasted until 1939, costing several hundreds of thousands lives. He won the Civil War with the help of Hitler's air force and then established a Fascist dictatorship which lasted until his death in 1975.
Nationalist groups were provided weapons by Italy and Germany. Germany and Italy wanted Fascism to spread and since Francisco Franco was leader of the Falangists (Spanish Fascists) and was trying to spread it.So they basically supplied the Spanish Falangists with weapons and such. After Franco became dictator of Spain, he didn't let Spain join WWII and remained neutral.

Countries such as Germany and Italy provided significant military support to Franco's nationalist forces during the Spanish Civil War. They supplied troops, aircraft, and weaponry, which bolstered Franco's capabilities and helped him gain critical advantages in key battles. Additionally, these nations sought to promote their fascist ideologies, believing that a Franco victory would serve their interests in Europe. Meanwhile, the Republican forces faced limited international support, primarily from the Soviet Union, which hampered their resistance.
