France did not occupy Spain in a conventional sense; rather, it invaded Spain during the Peninsular War (1808-1814) as part of the larger Napoleonic Wars. The conflict arose after Napoleon sought to enforce the Continental System against Britain and aimed to install his brother Joseph Bonaparte as king of Spain. The invasion sparked widespread resistance and guerrilla warfare among the Spanish populace, leading to a protracted struggle that ultimately contributed to Napoleon's downfall. The occupation was characterized by brutal repression and significant social and political upheaval in Spain.
