Francisco Franco
Franco was known as a well- respected military leader. So, when the Spanish Republic failed to satisfy popular expectation and a Spanish Civil War broke out, Franco became the Generalisimo of the Nationalist army. Politically and socially, Spain was a mess and its people were looking for someone to trust. Franco used his power as Generalisimo to kill and imprison Spanish people and when Madrid surrendered, he became dictator.

Franco had two major goals that he wanted to accomplish during his dictatorship. He wanted to force Britain to give up Gibraltr and to maintain the Spanish colonies in Africa. However, Franco was not able to achieve both of those goals before his death.

How evil?!
