Primo de Rivera
Miguel Primo de Rivera was a Spanish military officer and politician who served as the Prime Minister of Spain from 1923 to 1930. He is best known for establishing a dictatorship that aimed to restore order and suppress regional autonomy in Spain during a period of political instability. His regime was characterized by censorship, repression of political opposition, and efforts to centralize power. After his resignation, Spain faced growing political unrest, which eventually contributed to the onset of the Spanish Civil War. His legacy is complex, as he is viewed by some as a stabilizing force while others criticize his authoritarian rule.
