Test their new weapons


What advantages did the Spanish civil war have for Hitler?

His army and air force were able to test their weapons and tactics, and sharpen their battle skills. The Spanish Civil War also encouraged Hitler and Mussolini that the British and French leadership would not resist their interferance with Soveriegn states. This miscalculation backfired on Hitler when he invaded Poland as the British and French did end up honouring their responsibilities to weaker states.


What was the result of the anschluss?

Anschluss was achieved in several different ways. Hitler was not going to make the same mistake he made in 1934. So by 1938, Hitler was allied with Mussolini. Also, Mussolini was occupied with the Spanish civil war, so unlikely to help Austria if Hitler did invade. Once Hitlers troops had marched into Austria, Hitler held a plebiscite (a vote). 99.75% of the Austrian population voted for a union with Germany. This is how Hitler achieved Anschluss


What consequences did the Spanish civil war have for Spanish society?

# around 700,000 people were killed # 200 buildings burned and made unhabitable # Priests and members of the Church were killed # Republicans were sent to concentration camps and executed # Hitler and Mussolini were brought together by their cooperation in the Spanish Civil War (an important factor as this formed the alliance that pitted them against the other European powers in World War 2) There are more consequences, but I can't really remember them off the top of my head...hope this helps. ^^
