Spanish Civil War 1936-1939

Germany and Italy backed Franco as he sought to overthrow the Loyalist (Republican) regime, which was ironically being helped by the Soviet Union. The US was still determined to stay out of the European war, which meant a victory for the Fascists and the further encouragement of the ambitions of Hitler and Mussolini.
