Franco: Governments
built 627 days ago
Franco was reluctant to enact any form of administrative and legislative decentralisation and kept a fully centralised form of government with a similar administrative structure to that established by the House of Bourbon and General Miguel Primo de Rivera y Orbaneja. Such structures were both based in the model of the French centralised State.

In February 1936 Franco joined other Spanish Army officers, such as Emilio Mola, Juan Yague, Gonzalo Queipo de Llano and José Sanjurjo, in talking about overthrowing the Popular Front government. Mola became leader of this group and at this stage Franco was unwilling to fully commit himself to joining the revolt.

In 1935 the conservative government appointed Franco as chief of staff, one of the highest positions in the Spanish army. However, the conservative government lost its parliamentary majority in the elections in February 1936, and the government shifted back toward the left. Franco grew even more frustrated by the liberal direction of the republic, as well as the growing strength of Communists, unions, and other left-wing groups in Spain.
