Stamp printed in Spain showing a portrait of General Francisco Franco 1892-1975 , series "Francisco Franco" Francisco Franco Bahamonde [note 1] (Spanish pronunciation: [fɾanˈθisko ˈfɾaŋko ba.aˈmonde]; 4 December 1892 – 20 November 1975) was a Spanish general, dictator and the Caudillo of Spain from 1939 until his death in 1975. [2] As a conservative and a monarchist, he opposed the abolition of the monarchy and the establishment of a republic in 1931. With the 1936 elections, the conservative Spanish Confederation of Autonomous Right-wing Groups lost by a narrow margin and the leftist Popular Front came to power. Intending to overthrow the republic, Franco and other generals staged a failed coup precipitating the Spanish Civil War. With the death of the other generals, Franco quickly became his faction's only leader.
