Francisco Franco used terror as a key tool to maintain control over his regime in Spain through systematic repression, censorship, and violence against dissenters. His government employed state-sponsored terror tactics, including executions, imprisonments, and forced labor, targeting political opponents, intellectuals, and any groups perceived as threats. The regime's security forces, such as the Guardia Civil, enforced this climate of fear, ensuring that any opposition was swiftly and brutally suppressed. This strategy not only stifled political dissent but also instilled a pervasive atmosphere of fear among the population, reinforcing Franco's authoritarian rule.
