31 dic 1930 año - King Alfonso to abdicate the throne and flee the country
Descripción:
King Alfonso XIII called for democratic elections, inaugurating the Second Republic — the First Republic, established in 1873, lasted just one year — and five years of social strife, during which the right and left united to power. Elections held in April 1931 went overwhelmingly to the republican parties, forcing King Alfonso to abdicate the throne and flee the country. The Second Republic government, headed by Manuel Azaña, consisted of a coalition of Republican middle-class parties and the right wing of the Spanish Socialist Party, the Partido Socialista Obrero Español (PSOE).
