The Spanish Civil War and the bombing of Guernica were considered a "dress rehearsal" for World War II because they showcased the tactics and technologies that would later be employed on a larger scale during the global conflict. The use of aerial bombardment, particularly by the German Luftwaffe in Guernica, demonstrated the devastating impact of modern warfare on civilian populations and infrastructure. Additionally, the ideological battles between fascism and communism in Spain mirrored the broader geopolitical struggles that would define World War II. This conflict also served as a testing ground for military strategies and alliances that would emerge in the subsequent war.
A bombing mission is commonly referred to as an "airstrike" or "bombing raid." It involves the deployment of aircraft to drop bombs on specific targets, usually with the aim of destroying military installations, infrastructure, or enemy forces. In military terminology, these missions can also be categorized based on their objectives, such as strategic bombing or tactical bombing.
Spanish children that are born in America are called Hispanic Americans or creoles. This is because the child was born in America but is of Spanish decent.
The children in England who had to be evacuated from the blitz bombing were called "Evacuees". Now to be funny, they were called lads, lassies, kids, children, bonnies.
I can think of two reasons. 1) Communism and Democracy allied to fight against Fascism and Naziism as they would later do in World War 2. And 2), tanks and military aircraft along with the tactics of mobile warfare were tested in Spain before WW2.

It is Guernica, his work depicting the atrocities of war that is cited as most notable by some sources, and is arguably one of the most discussed of his paintings, partly due to the political aspect of the work.The painting 'Guernica' is one of Picasso's great Masterpieces. The nature of 'Famous' is a changing thing which makes it difficult to define with art.
