> Public order was a problem from the first moment. Arson, vandalism, and demonstrations tinged with violence were reported in at least eleven provinces, and probably a good many more, with numerous attacks on local places of rightist groups and even in some instances on those of the Radical Party. Violent jailbreaks to free leftist prisoners also sometimes freed common criminals, adding to crime and disorder. Azaña further noted on the twentieth that “people are going to take out their anger against churches and convents, and the result is that as in 1931, the government is born with scorching. The result is deplorable. They are behaving just as though they had been paid by our enemies”
Completely unrelated, but those borders were sleek. Albacete in Murcia, Leon separated from Castile… I miss La Rioja though, and I’m sure Madrid would have to be separated from the rest of La Mancha.
